??? pov.

"Forgive me, Miriam." I gently whispered as I watched Azarath getting destroyed. "Forgive me, for all I have done. But this is how it must go. There is no other way."

I then turned away and from the image in the looking glass and dissapeared into the shadows, my dress swishing behind me.

Miriam's pov.

After I was grabbed and dragged through the portal I found myself back in the North Pole. I was sobbing heavily and trying to get back and help, but the person who was holding me from behind had a strong grip and wouldn't let me go.

Soon enough my grief turned into anger as I broke out of the person's grasp and took out one of my tessens and held it close to Zenaida's throat.

"HOW COULD YOU!?!?! THOSE PEOPLE, MY PEOPLE, NEEDED OUR HELP!!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TRY TO HELP?!?! WHY DID YOU FORCED US ALL TO RUN LIKE COWARDS!?!?! " I said as I quickly advanced at the goddess and cornered her.

"There was no other way. It was either just them or us along-" Zenaida tried to explain.

"I DON'T CARE!!!! THEY NEEDED MY HELP!!! OUR HELP!! WHILE YOU JUST-"

"Shiela, you need to calm down-" Bunnymund started. How could you?

"NO!!! NO, I DON'T NEED TO CALM DOWN!!! YOU COULD'VE HELPED ME!! DO YOU NOT CARE ABOUT MY PEOPLE?!?!" I yelled at him, but what I didn't know was that my little daughter, Hope, was hiding behind a pillar and watching.

"I DO!! BUT I ALSO CARE FOR HOPE!!!! OUR DAUGHTER!!! SHE CAN'T AFFORD TO LOSE ONE OF HER PARENT'S, OR WORSE - BOTH!!! HOW CAN YOU BE SO BLIND OF THIS, MIRIAM!!!" Bunnymund started yelling in reply.

"So you chose to betray me instead." I growled, venom in my voice. "You chose to let a whole dimention get destroyed, it's inhabitants getting slaughtered. Just so you could take her-" I then pointed at Zenaida, who was standing there shocked. "-side."

"Shiela, that's not what I meant-" Bunnymund tried to explain, a look of desparation on his face.

"You say that you want to protect our daughter from all the evil in this world, yet you yourself allow her to be harmed." I hissed at him. "I never want to see you again."

And with that I flew away.

Noone's pov.

"Daddy," Hope softly called out to her father who turned his head in her direction, as well as the other Guardians'. "Why is mommy mad? Is-is it something I did?"

The little girl started crying and Bunnymund started wiping the tears away.

"No, my little anklebiter. Mommy is not mad at you. She's just mad at me."

Jack then bowed his head in shame. He knew he should've helped Miriam. She was like his big sister.

And so he flew out in search for Miriam.
