"You go to the child while I'll go and see if I can make some children believe again."
"I'll see you later." Jack quickly flies to Jamie's house.
"Now, who should we see...?" (Name) asks the fairy on her hand. She looks at a house's window to see a teenager waving at her. "Oh! Martha." She flies in her room but the open window.
"(Name)."
"Marth."
The girl takes a step forward to hug her. "I've been fascinated by death lately..."
(Name) chuckles. "Oh, are you now?" Looking at the girl's wall to see drawing of her and other symbolisms of death.
"Yes. I've been drawing you."
"I can see that."
The girl picks up a cat that's sleeping on her bed and shows it to her. "Is my cat a reaper?"
(Name) pokes the cat on her nose. "Nope. Anyways, I need you to start believing in the Tooth fairy, Santa, Jack Frost and Bunny."
"I thought you said they aren't real."
"They are."
"No they're not. You're the only spirit I can see."
"Didn't you say you saw Jack Frost that one time?"
"I lied."
Martha's father opens the door. "Honey, who are you talking to?"
"I'm talking with death. Didn't I tell you to know before opening my door!? I need privacy, people!"
The father just chuckles at his daughter's outburst. "Alright, honey." He closes the door once again.
(Nam) looks out the window to see North's sleigh is on a crash course with Jamie's street.
North tries to get his sleigh under control. It careens to a halt and the reindeer run off. "Ah, come back!"
"North are you okay?" Tooth asks.
"Is official. My powers are kaput!" The sleigh settles with a thud.
Tooth gasps. "Look!" She jumps off the sleigh, but can't fly. She stumbles to her feet.
"Weirdos." Marth says next to (Name).
"Wait, you can actually see them?" (Name) conforms her conclusion all along, only the innocent are listed on the lights on the globe and the ones like Martha aren't counted. "Huh. Makes sense. I'll have to fly away now, don't do anything harmful." She flies back to where the guardians are.
"(Name)!" Tooth says as she stumbles to hug her. She looks are the Baby Tooth on the girl's shoulder than to her. "You're here! How?!"
"Ask Jack." (Name) looks at the now short bunny. "Hey Bunny, looking cute."
"Shut it."
Thunder and lightning crackle in the sky, startling all of the Guardians, notably Bunny who jumps to (Name)'s feet as Pitch appears.
"Get Jamie out of here!"
"Be careful, Jack!" North yells as Jack flies up to meet Pitch. The two fight with each other.
"This way, this way!" Bunny dictates (Name) as she carries him. "Ahhh, dead end! Other way, other way!"
Tooth and Jamie start running, but North is hobbling.
Jack suddenly falls out of the sky.
"Jack!"
They all run back towards Jack, who is groaning. (Name) puts down the bunny to help him up. "Thanks."
Jamie is still confused who the other one who can see. "Who are you talking to and why can't I see them?"
"You can see her when you're older." Jack ruffles the child's hair.
"That was good try, Jack - A for effort."
"Why don't you tell Jamie to just make the other kids believe in you again?" (Name) suggests. "That way. you can get your powers back."
"Good idea." Jack tells her.
Jamie can hear her but it's like a whisper.
"I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see you all like this! "Pitch and the Nightmares come out of the shadows. "You look awful."
"Jack, I'm scared."
Jack crouches in front of Jamie, remembering his sister saying the same thing. "I- I know, I know, but you're gonna be alright. We're gonna have a little fun instead. That's it - that's my center!"
Jamie looks confused.
Pitch chuckles. "So what do you think, Jamie? Do you believe in the Boogey-- AH!" Nightmares go on alert, confused as a snowball just hit Pitch in the face.
A little laugh escapes Jamie, and the others too.
Jack laughs along. "Now let's go get your friends."
Pitch clears the snow from his face, just as Jack's ice run streaks past them. They all go careening down the middle of the street, laughing as Jack keeps them moving. Even Bunny enjoys himself for a brief moment.
(Name) floats behind them, even if she's witnessing a villains' defeat she still has work to do, she's originally a neutral party after all. She returns when the gang slides to a halt in downtown, where Pitch's army is waiting.
"You think a few children can help you? Against this?"
North tries to hold up his sword, but he's too weak. Jamie looks worried.
"They're just bad dreams, Jamie." Jack reassures the child as (Name) lands beside him again.
"'N we'll protect you, mate."
"Oh, you'll protect them?" Pitch laughs. "But who will protect you?"
Jack steps forward, but Jamie gets in front of him. The kids start saying that they would be the ones to protect them. The white haired boy nods at Jamie, still a little concerned.
"Still think there's no such thing as the Boogeyman?" The Nightmares close in on the Guardian group.
"I do believe in you. I'm just not afraid of you." Jamie holds out his hand front of the Nightmares. When they run into it, they burst into Dream-sand. The kids get excited and so do the Guardians. Pitch not so much.
Marth appears again, waving at (Name).
"Marth, what are you doing?"
"I don't know..." A nightmare tries to run at her but they just get absorbed. "I figured I'll just stay here and watch the weird show.
"Who's she talking to?" A kid whispers to Tooth as he looks at Martha like she's out of her mind.
"You'll know when you get older."
(Name) just watches the chaos happen with Martha on the side. She's thinking of how the adults would see this.
"Lady Death, is that you? You're still as beautiful when I last saw you." A guy takes her hand and kisses it. A snowball hits him on the head. "Who did that?!" Another hits him again and again until he's running off.
"Are you alright?" Jack asks. He's used to the people who sees death as their muse so he has snowballs prepared. He continues battling with the nightmares again.
"Why aren't you fighting with them?"
"I'm a pacifist type of element. I only fight when necessary and they seem like they can handle this." (Name) replies as she looks at Sandy's revival.
