Chapter 31: Twisted
"WHAT PLAN?" asked the furious winter spirit.
Pitch was gone, leaving you and Jack alone. The young guardian has to demur after what he had seen and heard from the Boogeyman. As you know, he doesn't trust you completely. Now, you're afraid that there's nothing left at all.
Jack grabbed both of your shoulders and shook you forcefully. You didn't look at him. He clutched his wooden staff and took a few steps backward from you. Pointing his weapon, Jack was shaking and he doesn't want to hurt you.
"What plan…" he repeated in a hushed voice. "Are you with him all along? Are you playing games with me?"
"J- Jack… I want to tell you b- but…" you stammered and can't say another word to him.
"And what about the thing he said that you let me died?" he continued asking but still didn't get a response from you.
Dreadfully angry, the winter spirit grasped his staff and grabbed your neck. You uttered a light yelp and you can feel Jack's cold hands.
"Who are you? I- I TRUSTED YOU! How could you…" Jack said and his voice became softer and softer until the end. He put you down slowly and looked down.
You knelt in the snow, crying quietly. Jack turned his back on you but didn't leave his spot. "I don't know anything about my past life." He started and his eyes frowned when he heard you fighting for air.
The young guardian didn't notice it but he clasped your neck rather tightly because of his anger. "You and Jef are the only ones I have right now… do- don't take that away from me… You need to tell me…" said the sorrowful winter spirit and lightly swerved then secretly glanced at you.
"Wh- what's my name?" you asked weakly while rubbing your neck.
Jack knelt in front of you and carefully lifted your chin. You gazed at his light, blue lonely eyes with yours and waiting for his answer.
"I…." he whispered and shook his head. "I don't remember…"
Devastated, you stood up with great effort and straightened. Jack looked up and said, "Where are you going?"
Without saying a word you were about to walk away and the young guardian trapped you in his arms and hugged you tightly.
"Do- don't go, please." Said the young guardian.
Jack Frost can't explain what he's feeling. He's angry, lonely and worried at the same time but he doesn't want you to leave him alone. Trying to take off his hands, you grinned and whispered, "Take care of Jef. I'll be gone for a few days."
"No- no… please. Don't go." he added and embraced you stronger.
"I have to go." You responded and turned to him.
Staring at his eyes, you slowly moved your lips closer to his. Jack cupped your cheeks and locked his pale, frigid lips on yours. Kissing you madly, the young guardian felt different and can picture something. The intense he's feeling right now wasn't the first time. He tried to remember it but he can't.
You broke the kiss and handed out Jef's dagger. Jack stared at it and switched his look at you. You smiled sweetly and planted a kiss on his forehead.
"I'll be back… I won't be gone forever. I- I just need to know something. I don't want you and Jef to get involved in it."
"Promise me you'll come back." He said thoughtfully and brushed your white, long hair.
You grinned and took off the necklace that the young guardian gave you after yours and his wedding. You put it in the palm of his hands and closed his pale fingers.
"Hold on to that…" you murmured and left.
Jack watched you fly away and didn't move until you're completely gone. Holding the necklace firmly, the winter spirit walked in the forest to find Jef. He saw his son, perched in a tree and realized that he saw everything that happed.
Jef looked at his young dad with worried eyes and scampered down the tree and walked t the winter spirit.
"What happened?" asked your son and pulled the young guardian's brown cloak. "What's with the fight?"
Jack sighed deeply and knelt in front of the boy. The winter spirit brushed the kid's brown hair and grinned reluctantly.
"No- nothing kiddo. You- won't understand." Said Jack without looking at Jef.
"Where is she going?" continued the winter spirit's son.
"Snowflake didn't tell me. She said that she'll be gone in a couple of days. Oh and…" said the young guardian and handed out his little weapon. "She wants you to have this. ALL THE TIME."
Jef took it politely and put it on the back part of his ankle, in his shoe, securely. Jack smiled and straightened himself.
"You hungry?" he asked to change the subject but Jef simply shook his head. "Come on kiddo… let's walk around. She'll be alright. She knows what she's doing…" he added and frowned, "I think…"
Back at North's place, the two assigned guardians, Bunnymund and Sandy, came back. The leader was so pleased to see the two and he's been waiting for them for about a few hours.
"What? What did you find out?" asked North suddenly with his Russian accent.
Sandy looked at the perplexed Bunnymund and they both don't know what to say to the guardian leader.
"What?" asked North again but they didn't respond.
A few moments later, the Tooth fairy came and saw her other three fellow guardians. She quickly stood in front of the Easter Bunny and the Sandman with a bright smile on her face
"What's the news? Is it good?" she asked with great expectation but when she realized that something's wrong, she got worried.
"The boy's name is Jef." Started Bunnymund and got everybody's attention, except for the elves of course.
"And?" North and Tooth said with relish.
"And he's with someone. A- An angel." Continued the ranger.
North looked at Tooth and they both don't get it. Bunnymund glared and explained further. "The boy, Jef, is with an angel. I don't know where she came from and- and there's something else."
Sandy filled his chubby cheeks with and and glanced in every direction. "That kid can see frostbite."
North and the Tooth fairy dropped their jaws and one of Tooth's forms fainted upon hearing the young guardian's teasing name. They all looked troubled and confused.
"Oh and…"
"Bunny! Just tell us everything without any pause! Is this one worse than the first?"
Ignoring North's anger, the Easter Bunny continued, "We saw her and Jack Frost confronts the Nightmare King and I think this angel... is with Pitch."
Without hesitation, the jolly man in the red suit became serious and somewhat agitated.
"Get the sleigh. We have to find this mysterious angel and bring her in."
