Chapter three: A Traitor in the Shadows


After the season spirits made the dust, some of them have to run because they have duties.

Rain started her first days of rain in some tropical countries like Philippines. Eugene have some 'duties' in some countries. Flame said she wants to enjoy her last days of Summer before Rainielle takes over.

Leaving the two other spirits, Rapunzel and Jack.

"So.." Jack swung his staff to his shoulder, "So.. " Rapunzel rubbed her elbows. "Do you want some cookies? There's some in the kitchen, freshly baked," Rapunzel smirked,"Sure," Jack nodded. The Spring spirit ran to her kitchen.

Jack looked at the paintings on the walls, one was filled with flowers,swirls and snowflakes. One was filled with star charts, constellations. The rest was covered with different kinds of designs. Then a wall caught his eye, it was covered with velvet curtains. He pulled it open.

Big surprise it was. The painting was.. was him as a human and the girl who tried to save him, they were sitting on a log, talking. They're hands together.

"You know it's rude to look at a girl's private things," Rapunzel said with a plate of cookies on her hands, "Oh, I don't mean to. But you don't mind if I ask you, who's that girl and why do you know me as a human?" Jack floated down to Rapunzel.

"Of course, you don't remember," Rapunzel smiled weakly but her eyes looked sad. "I don't remember? Rapunzel, I have no memories of my past for the last 300 years, I never really have time to finish all of my memories," Jack grabbed Rapunzel's shoulders. "I-I'm sorry but.. you should figure it out yourself," Rapunzel said sheepishly, almost mumbling. Jack just stared at her.

Rapunzel placed the cookies on the table and ran to the kitchen.

Pitch's Lair

"It's a good thing you remember to visit my little one," Pitch patted the head of the girl. The girl was wearing a black cloak covering her face and her body. She only appears as a shadow.

"I have made contact with your enemy, Father. He have no idea you're coming," the girl said. "Excellent, now what is he currently doing?" Pitch glided across the room.

"Take a look," the girl handed Pitch a crystal ball, her hand have scars made by cuts and whips. Pitch took the crystal ball. He waved his hand above it and it made ripples. It showed Jack and Rapunzel talking.

"Interesting, interesting, Jack Frost with the Guardians' Sunshine. This will be easy," Pitch laughed evily. "Devion, keep a close eye between them, I'll take care of the rest," Pitch looked at the cloaked girl.

"Yes.. father," the girl used shadow travel like her father does.

"Poor Jack Frost, can't remember who little Rapunzel is in his human life," Pitch glared at the crystal ball and said it with a teasing tune.


"Hello fellow spirits!" Flame barged in the window. "Flame, your back early," Rapunzel smiled at the young spirit, "Well, nobody's on the beaches today cause it's raining so yeah, I'm definitely early," Flame wrinkled her nose.

"Aww, is the summer spirit sad because nobody wants to play with her?" Jack teased. "Look! It's the boy who can't remember his past!" Flame smirked. "What do you know about my past? I saved my sister from drowning. What did you do and you became a spirit?" Jack looked down at the small spirit.

"I gave up! I'm born as a spirit! You don't know who you're talking to!" Flame hissed, "Hmph, you gave up. How could you be born spirit?" Jack raised his eyebrow.

"You don't know anything about my past and leave it that way," Flame said crossing her arms. Jack got curious of how Flame is a born-spirit.

"Whoa, there! This season rivalry have to stop before you destroy my tower," Rapunzel smirked. "Yeah, I have to go. See yah' Rapunzel.. Flame," Jack flew to the North pole.


Guardian Meeting

"Guys, do you know anybody who is born-spirit?" Jack sat down on North's desk. "Born-spirit? I don't think so Jack," Tooth fluttered around, half facing her fellow Guardian, half facing her fairies.

"There is one," North stroked his snow-white beard. "Who?" Jack smirked.

"Devion Black, mate. One of the most dangerous spirits, mate," Bunny played with his boomerang. "How could you say she's dangerous?" Jack swung his staff to his shoulder, Sandy made a picture of Pitch on top of his head.

"Devi, is the daughter of Pitch. She's half spirit for all we know, she's dangerous because of her powers. Her powers are unknown some say she can control fire, some say she have the same power of her father and some say she have the power unknown, the strongest one," North's jolly voice turned serious.

"Jack, why are you so curious of a spirit that is born as a spirit?" Tooth's feathers ruffled.

"It's nothing.. Tooth, can I take another look of my memories? I haven't finished it yet," Jack smirked.

"Oh, Jack. The memories of the teeth only hold your most precious memories, some of your memories are in the strand of your hair, toe nails or finger nails," Tooth said. "Oh, I thought there would be more.. Do you have Rapunzel's memory?"

"Rapunzel? Oh Rapunzel! Sorry but only me, my fairies and the owner can take a look in those memories,"


"I can't believe he doesn't remember, Pascal," Rapunzel said with her chameleon on her palms. "Umm, hello?! I'm still here!" Flame said while munching on cookies.

"I know," Rapunzel muttered.
