Mischief's Daughter
Thirty-One: Reason
They go down and some of them are laughing, turning around and floating as they went... They drop in the Warren and North sits up.
"Buckle up, is very funny." He says.
"Welcome to the Warren." Bunny says proudly. He then hears something and his ears flicked up. "Something's up." They all get ready to attack and when the eggs come forward and they are ready, they stop at seeing the blond girl. Jakeline recognizes her.
"Sophie?" She says. Sophie looks around and looks at the elf.
"Elf, elf, elf." She says chasing after the little elf.
"What is she doing here?" Bunny demands and North searches himself.
"Snow-globe." He says.
"Crikey! Somebody do something." He says looking around. Jakeline raises her hands in surrender.
"Don't look at me. I'm invisible, remember?" she says.
"Don't worry, Bunny." Tooth says getting forward. "I bet she's a fairy fan. It's okay little one."
"Pretty." Sophie says.
"You know what? I've got something for you! Here it is." Tooth says and shows Sophie the teeth. "Look at all the pretty teeth, with blood and gums on them!" Sophie's screams and Jakeline chuckled.
"Blood and gums? When was the last time you guys actually hung out with kids?" she asked sitting on one of the eggs. She was surprised since she raised Clint and the fact that the Guardians didn't look at children it was weird.
"Peek-a-boo."
"We are very busy bringing joy to children. We don't have time... for children." North said.
"If one little kid can ruin Easter, then we're in worse shape than I thought." Jakeline said getting one of her snowflake to form and she threw it at Bunny. They began to paint the eggs all of them surprised by how many they were?
"Alright troop's it's time we pushed back that means eggs everywhere…" Bunny told them. They continued until they had each of them done. Jakeline looks at them and was really surprise.
"What's over there?" Bunny asked Sophie. She brought him an egg. "That's a beauty, now all we have to do is get him and his mates up the tunnels to the top and we'll have ourselves Easter." He said holding Sophie's hand. As they looked at the eggs go and Sophie got herself in Bunny's arms, Jakeline came forward and crouched down.
"Not bad." she said and looked at him.
"Not bad yourself." He told her.
"Look, I'm sorry about the whole…you know, the kangaroo thing." she said.
"It's the accent isn't it?" he asks her.
He looks down at Sophie and smiles. "Poor little ankle-biter. Look at her. All tuckered out." He said and the Guardians come forward.
"I love her." Tooth says. Bunny gives her Sophie. "I think it's time to get her home."
"How about I take her home?" Jakeline asks.
"Jack no." Tooth says. "Pitch is…"
"No match for this." she says showing her staff.
"Which is why we need you here with us?" Bunny tells her.
"Trust me." she says looking at him in the eye. "I'll be quick as a bunny."

Jakeline left Sophie on her bed well floor and she looks at her through the window before she looks at Baby Tooth.
"We should get back." She says and suddenly she hears it.
"Jack!" Jakeline is surprised.
"I know that voice, I know that voice." She says, because she recognizes it but she doesn't remember from were exactly, since she should recognize why she remembers it.
"Jack!" She decides to investigate. She lands in a little roof fan and spins. "Jack!" she goes and lands on the forest before finding a bed. She moves closer and Baby Tooth pulls her hoodie.
"Don't worry there's still time." She says and moves to the bed.
"Jack!" she hears as she had broken he planks, she went down the hole. As she moved through the tunnel Baby Tooth was chirping at her.
"Baby Tooth, come on! I have to find out what that is." She says and when she arrives it horrifies her to see the cages. She flies to them and sees the baby tooth flying there. "Keep it down! I'm gonna get you out of here just as soon as…"
"Jack, Jack!" she hears and looks around.
"…as I can." She says and goes down to look through the memories boxes trying to find hers.
"Looking for something?" Jakeline turns around and throws a shot of ice from her staff. She follows the shadow up the tricky maze cave. "Don't be afraid Jakeline." He says. "I'm not gonna hurt you." He tells her.
"Afraid? I'm not afraid of you." She says getting closer.
"Maybe not. But you are afraid of something." He tells her.
"You think so, huh?"
"I know so! It's the one thing I always know. People's greatest fears." He tells her. "Yours is the no one will ever believe in you and that you will lose them." Jakeline looks at him in shock and she suddenly falls down a shadow hole. She tries to get her staff. "And worst of all, you're afraid you'll never know why. Why you?" Jack was trying to find an exit and she only found a wall. "Why were you chosen to be like this?" The shadow comes closer and Jack looks forward. "Well fear not? For the answer to that is right here." He says and shows her a memory box with her picture on it. "Do you want them Jakeline? Your memories?" He asks and she tries to reach but changes her mind the price would be to great did she really want her memories back. He's moving again and she follows trying to find him.
"Everything you wanted to know in this box." He laughs. "Why did you end up like this? Unseen. Unable to reach out to anyone." He is closing in on her. "You want the answers so badly. You want to grab them and fly off with them." He says and the shadow are increasing and so is a bit of her fear. "But you're afraid of what the Guardians will think. You're afraid of disappointing them of disappointing those two you care for most." He says. "Well let me ease your mind about one thing. They'll never accept you, not really, and those two you will lose them they will die and you will be alone."
"Stop it, stop it." she screams walking backwards.
"After all you're not one of them." Pitch told her. "You're also not mortal."
"You don't know what I am?" she says. "You don't know anything."
"Of course I do your Jakeline Frost; you make a mess wherever you go. Why you're doing it right now?" He says throwing her box at her. Jakeline looks at her than back at him.
"What did you do?" she asks.
"More to the point Jakeline, what did you do?" he says and disappears and she follows him and tries to fight him with her staff lighting it and sees nothing. She remembers Baby Tooth and returns just to see the door is seal.
"Baby Tooth!" she screams
"Happy Easter, Jakeline." Pitch says and she turns around just to see the eggs on the ground destroyed.
"No." she says and flies off to find the Guardians.

Clint had woken up in the morning and he knew it was Easter and he looked around and he saw nothing. He had always looked around.
"What are you looking for?" he turned around to see Phil.
"Um…nothing." Clint tells him. He knows that Phil was not going to believe him they had been married for too long.
"Clint?" Phil said.
"It's just its Easter and there is nothing around." Clint told him. "I know how it sounds but there is always eggs around this place and right now there isn't anything, they're no Easter Eggs, and my Mom always steals some from the Easter Bunny."
"I think you are one of the most enlighten person ever." Phil tells him. He believed it; it surprised Phil to remember that Clint had been raised by another being.
"That's just a way of saying I'm insane." Clint said.
"Not really, you do realize that Jakeline sent you Easter Eggs home, and the office every year, I just didn't know they were stolen." Phil told him. Clint was still worried about it thought because the Easter Bunny never missed or shouldn't have.

In the park, Bunny is looking at the kids looking for eggs.
"There aren't any eggs." One of the kids says.
"There's nothing here."
"I give up."
"He didn't come."
"I don't understand."
"Maybe he just hid them really well this year." Bunny keeps hearing from the kids.
"Kids, oi!" he says.
"I checked everywhere. There's nothing."
"Yes there is! There is!" he says looking at the kids. "I mean, there aren't my best looking googies, but they'll do in a pinch." He told them.
"I can't believe it." he hears.
"I know." Bunny says relief.
"There's no such thing as the Ester Bunny." The girls says
"What?" he says. "No. Wrong! Not true! I'm right in-front of you mate."
"Why wouldn't he come?" and they passed through him. Bunny feels cold.
"They don't see me. They don't see me." he says again. Jakeline just arrived to see that and it broke her heart because she knew how that felt and it was something she didn't wish on anyone.
"Jack, where were you?" North asks her and she looked at him. "The Nightmares attacked the tunnels. They smashed every egg crushed every basket! Nothing made it to the surface."
"Jakeline." Tooth came and she looks at the box. "Where did you get that?"
"I was…it's…" she couldn't get the words to form.
"Where's Baby Tooth?" she asked looking around for her fairy. She covers her mouth as she sees Jack. "Jakeline, what have you done?"
"That is why you weren't here?" North demands. "You were with Pitch?"
"No listen, listen." She says. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen."
"She has to go." Jack turns around to look at Bunny.
"What?" she says.
"We should never have trusted you!" he yelled at her, and she looked at him in shock. "Easter is new beginnings, new life." He explains. "Easter is about hope. And now it's gone." He turns back around and Jack looks at the other two to let her explain. They give her their back. She grabs the little doll from her pocket and throws it to the ground.

Jakeline wants to go back to Avengers Tower with Steve and Clint, but she didn't feel like going and facing them. She looks at her box of memories and tries to throw them but she finds that she can't.
"I thought this might happen." Jakeline hears the voice behind her. "They never really believed in you. I was just trying to show you that. But I understand." Every word he says gets her angry.
"You don't understand anything." she says throwing a shot of ice.
"No, I don't know what it's like to be cast out?" he screams at her. She rolls out of his shots and ends up throwing a big shot of ice the same time he throws sand at her. "To not be believed in? To long for a family. All those years in the shadows I thought no one knows what this feels like." He tells her. "But now I see I was wrong. We don't have to be alone Jakeline, I believe in you and I know children will too." he told her.
"In me?" she asks.
"Yes!" Pitch tells her and shows her the thing they created "Look at what we can do. What goes better than cold and dark? We can make them believe, we'll give them a world where everything, everything is…" Jakeline instead of fascinated by the sculpture is terrified. She begins to remind herself of what happened.
"Pitch Black?" She says.
"And Jakeline Frost too. They'll believe in both of us." Pitch told her.
"No, they'll fear both of us." She told him. "And that's not what I want. Now for the last time leave me alone." Jack said and turned around. She was going to go back home with Steve, Clint and the rest of the Avengers she wasn't made to be a Guardian, she was an Avenger.
"Very well you want to be left alone. Done." Pitch said. "But first." When she hears Baby Tooth's chirps she turns around and goes to her.
"Baby Tooth!"
"The staff Jakeline. You have a bad habit of interfering." He told her as she pointed her staff at him. "Now hand it over, and I'll let her go." Jack thought it over, she had made mistake she couldn't afford more and she cared for Baby Tooth. She handed over her staff.
"Alright, now let her go." She said.
"No." he tells her. "You said you wanted to be left alone. So be alone!" Baby Tooth didn't take that and put her beak on Pitch's hand and he threw her.
"No!" Jack said and turned around just for Pitch to break the staff, Jack screamed because it felt like her insides were tore into pieces.

The team was watching television, when Loki felt the break.
"No!" he screamed out getting everyone to look at him.
"Brother, what is wrong?" Thor asked.
"Someone…someone broke Jakeline's staff." Loki told him.
"What?" Clint and Steve asked.
"Someone broke Jakeline's staff." Loki said and he was getting ready to go and find his daughter.
"You can't go." Thor told him.
"She is my daughter." Loki told him, he was getting agitated and then something happen when Darcy touched his shoulder Loki seemed to deflate and it shocked the other Avengers, even Bruce who was breathing in and out to calm himself down.
"He told you that she would be fine." Darcy told him.
"I don't trust him." Loki told her, grabbing her hand in his looking at her. He understood Darcy may be her dead wives reincarnation he couldn't deny it anymore but she was all herself as well to brave for her own good.
"He wouldn't have chosen her for no reason he knows what he is doing, Jakeline will call you if she needs your help." Darcy told him.
"Alright." Loki said.
"You need to explain." Steve told him, he was worried for Jakeline.

Pitch took the opportunity and threw her with the black sand into a pit. She gets knocked out for a bit. When she wakes she sees Baby Tooth on the ground and she goes to hold her.
"Baby Tooth." She says. "You alright?" she asks and she makes the little fairy sneeze. "Sorry. All I can do is keep you cold." She says, she forgot her gloves another mistake. "Pitch was right; I make a mess of everything." She said and Baby Tooth went into her cloak pocket. "Hey." She says but if she find warm there well she can't say anything.
"Jack! Jack!" Jakeline opens her eyes and looks at the light coming from her pocket making her jump.
"Ah." She screams, she takes out the box and sees that it is glowing. Jakeline looks at it and see's Baby Tooth and she taps the box before the memories begin.

Jakeline was around the world and she stopped at a settlement, to her she was curious about the people. Her Dad had just left to Asgard once more and she missed him. She went to stop at the lake when she saw it.
The next memory is of a boy in the lake with his sister and she looks scared.
"It's okay, it's okay." He says softly to his sister. "Don't look down, just look at me." the boy said and took his skates off and he is looking at his sister, who is trying not to look down.
"Jack I'm scared." She tells her. Jack sees as the ice breaks around her sister's feet. Jakeline looks at the ice breaking.
"I know, but you're going to be alright, you're not going to fall in." he says trying to think of something. "Ah, we're gonna have a little fun instead." He tells her.
"No, we're not."
"Will I trick you?" he asks.
"Yes, you always play tricks."
"Well not this time, not this time. I promise you're gonna be fine." Jack says and his sister looks at him with fear. "You have to believe in me."
"You want to play a game; we're going to play hop-scotch, like we play every day." Jack told her. "It's as easy as one." Jack ignores the floor cracking his sister is his only concern. He makes it fun. "Three." He gets to his staff and bents down picking it up. "Alright, now it's your turn." He says holding the staff.
"One." He counts and his sister looks at her feet. "Two." Just a little closer. "Three." He is able to pull his sister away but she moves to her spot. He smiles at his sister and tries to walk to her when the ice breaks and suddenly he is under water. Jakeline gasped before she walked down into the lake.
"Go ask for help." Jakeline tells the little girl.
"Who?" Jakeline doesn't say anything before she jumps inside hole and tries to go get the boy. He is trying for air and she grabs him pulling him up, she doesn't even notice the moon shining up at her. She pulls him out of the water before giving him CPR. Jack starts to cough and opens his eyes.
"Emily." He says and Jakeline looks at him.
