Sorry it took me so long to update any of my stories but life as been crazy for me the last week or so and I will update the others as soon as I can. I don't how many of you saw the little bit I added to my A/N on the first chapter of on of my other stories so I'll tell you again, everyone who has a kindle (any version) can download Rise of the Guardians on it, just thought I'd tell you in case you haven't already figured it out. This chapter takes place not long after Pitch is defeated by the Guardians.

Tooth was going about her business when the wind suddenly came swirling around her and began to tug her away from the Tooth Palace, almost like it was trying to get her to follow it. She shouted out to Baby Tooth as the wind carried her off even though she fought against it. It didn't take the wind long to drop her at Jack's pond where Jamie and the others were gathered around an unconscious figure, clearly upset about something.

"Jamie what's wrong?" Tooth asked as soon as she saw them and Jamie just pointed to the figure lying on the ground.

"He, he saved us from the bear." Pippa told her as Tooth knelt on the ground next to Jack's almost too still body. Taking note of how bad his injuries were Tooth turned to Jamie and ordered him to go get her a first aid kit so she could bandage them until she was able to get help on getting him to the Pole.

Jamie nodded and ran off while Tooth proceeded to remove Jack's clothes in order to get a better look at his injuries. "I need someone to go get me some water and a rag so I can clean him up." She said and the twins ran to get some water and rags as Jamie came back with the first aid kit, placing it next to her. "Thank you Jamie."

"Is he going to be alright?" Jamie asked worriedly as he lowered his body beside Tooth's and grabbed a hold of Jack's hand, fear in his eyes for his best friend.

Tooth smiled gently at Jamie, laying a hand on his shoulder. "Jack will be just fine Jamie. Once I get him cleaned up and bandaged I'll take him to the Pole where he can rest and get better."

"You could take him to my house while he heals." Jamie practically begged Tooth.

"I don't know Jamie, he'll need someone to constantly look after him as well as change his bandages every few hours." Seeing the upset look in his eyes Tooth sighed. "How about I see if it's alright with North if you stay at the Pole while Jack is healing up."

At her words Jamie cheered up a smile coming to his face. "I would like that Tooth, thanks." Just then the twins returned with the water and rags so Tooth started cleaning away the blood and dirt noticing what appeared to be a snowflake tattoo on Jack's right shoulder. "That's odd." She murmured to herself. "I'll have to ask North about it."

Once Jack was bandaged and the kids went home Tooth gathered Jack in her arms and flew as fast as she could to the Pole, entering directly into Jack's room through the window that is always left open for him then went to find North to let him know what happened and that Jamie is wanting to stay with Jack. "There is something else I found a small snowflake tattoo on Jack's right shoulder."

North's shoulders stiffened when she said that then he was striding towards Jack's room without a word, his face blank as he did making Tooth slightly worried at his reaction. "North what is going on?" She demanded to know when she caught up to him just outside of Jack's room.

"Go send the lights it's best if Bunny and Sandy are here to hear this as well and have Phil pick up Jamie. I'll explain everything once Bunny and Sandy get here." Is all North said as he entered Jack's room closing the door behind him.

Knowing she didn't have any other choice at the moment Tooth flew off to do as North told her and soon the other two arrived. "North everyone's here." Tooth let him know as she pushed open the door to Jack's room and the four of them entered, Jamie immediately rushing to Jack's side. North stood up and walked over to the other Guardians. "Come let us go to sitting room and I tell you about the 'tattoo'."

With that he left Jack's room, the other three following him. Once they were all seated North began telling them a story-

A young Nikolas St. North ducked into an alley way to escape the guards patrolling the city he and his band of thieves had just entered, checking out all the places worth stealing from when a woman caught his eye and he ended up spending the night with her. Leaving her alone the next morning in order to meet up with his men so they could get their chosen job done and return to their camp with their stolen riches.

Though he tried he couldn't forget about the woman and, nine months later, slipped back into the city in an attempt to find her only to find she had died giving birth to four babies, two daughters and two sons, his children and not really having the time to raise them nor wanting his children to grow up the same way he did young Nikolas traveled to the small village of Burgess to find four couples to take them in and care for them as their own though it took a while to find a couple for his oldest son but he finally did. "His name is Jackson, his mother has died and I don't have the means to care for him." He told the young couple whose name was Overland Frost after he asked if they would take his son in.

Hearing that the couple instantly agreed to take baby Jackson in and as young Nikolas was handing him over part of his shirt slipped to reveal a birthmark in the shape of a snowflake.

"And so you see Jack, it seems, is one of the children I gave up all those years ago if what Tooth told me is true and he does in fact have the snowflake birthmark." North finished then went silent as he waited for the others reaction.

"What about the other three children?" Tooth asked.

North sighed. "You'll know them by their birthmarks as well, raindrops on her left cheek, a flower on her right hand and a leaf on his right foot. Jack's is on his right shoulder as you already know Tooth." No one of them noticed Jack standing there quietly listening to North's story until he spoke up.

"My parents told me I was adopted but they said they didn't know the young man who left me with them as a baby and that they never saw him again after he left…it was you you're my birth father aren't you North and my birth brother and sisters are the other three seasonal spirits aren't they?"

North started then turned to meet Jack's gaze slowly nodding his head once he did. Jack sighed as he turned away, covering his hood up over his head as he did, and fled the room wanting to be alone for the time being. At North's sorrow filled look Sandy laid a hand on his shoulder before going after Jack in order to be there when Jack was ready to talk.

"You did what you thought was right North and Jack will soon learn that for himself." Bunny assured his friend. "And when he does he will come to you so just give him time."

North nodded then went into his personal work space. Tooth and Bunny watched him go without saying a word. Once he was gone Tooth turned to Bunny. "Should we do something?" She wanted to know, worry in her eyes and Bunny shook his head before opening up a tunnel to return to his Warren leaving Tooth with no option but return to her Palace.

When Sandy found Jack he simply settled down next to Jack pretending to be interested in what the yetis were doing letting Jack speak up when he was ready. "Did North ever mention me when you guys would meet?" Jack asked.

Sandy rose off the ceiling beam, excited, and grabbed Jack by the hand pulling him along behind him. "Hey slow down! Where are you taking me Sandy?" Jack yelped when Sandy started pulling him along behind him. The dream giver ignored him as he made his way through the workshop until he reached a door Jack had never seen before and pushed it open to enter the room drawing Jack in it as well.

"I don't think…" Jack began to say but trailed off when he saw what was in the room and stepped in further while Sandy closed the door, using some of his dreamsand to light up the room. "Why didn't North ever tell me about this room or the fact I'm his son and the other three seasonal spirits are my siblings?" Jack cried as he looked over all the paintings in the room but Sandy had no answer for him and gently patted him on the shoulder in an attempt to comfort him.
