Bunny finally got there, to the spot where the teeth had fallen out if Jacks hand.  He searched where Jack was standing. There was still traces of nightmare sand on the ground, but no teeth. The teeth seemed to be out of sight. Bunny cursed under his breath, searching around for it again. But his luck was not with him today. Bunny kicked a plastic bottle on the ground with anger. His fist hitting a tree that stood right behind him. A whisper, so soft and so low said Jack's name. Bunny stopped, slowly turning he saw a bright light above the nightmare sand. The light looked like a ball of blue flames. Bunny slowly, his boomerang now in hand, started towards it. The ball grew brighter the closer he got to it.

      Jack.

     The voice sounded like a little girl. The bright light blew out, making the entire area go white. Bunny covered his eyes. The blinding light only lasted a couple of seconds. Once it stopped, Bunny slowly uncovered his eyes, seeing nothing more than the forest.

      "Jack." He gasped, hoping away, he turned. A girl with brown hair and a brown dress stood in front of him. She was in her early teens with a sad look on her face.

      Bunny took a deep breath. "Who are you?" Asked Bunny, standing tall with his chest out.

      The little girl glanced up. "Jack? He seems to have gotten himself into trouble..." The girl said quietly.

      "Oy, how do you know Jack?" Asked the Easter Bunny.

      The little girl sighed. "I guess you can call me his guardian." She says.

     He raised a brow. "His guardian? Sorry mate, but he is a guardian on his own." Bunny said, putting his boomerangs away.

     She shook her head. "I am his guardian. After his bravery saved me... I was upset and mad. But I was also grateful. So after I passed away, I made a vow to always watch over him. But he is in trouble and I came to give assistance." The girl said. "My name is Emma Frost." The girl said.

     Bunny wrinkled his brows. "Frost? You're telling me that You and Jack are related?" Asked bunny. He was still trying to wrap his head around it. He knew how crazy this sounded, but he felt like he could trust her.

     "Yes. I am his sister. 300 years ago, Jack saved me from falling into the lake that he currently calls home. But to me he died. It wasn't until after I passed away that I found out he turned into the winter spirit. He was always Jack Frost to me." She paused, taking in a deep breath. "After I found out about it, I decided to take care of him even if he forgot about me."

      Bunny nodded. He really didn't know anything about Jack. He always made fun of him and teased him and... Told him no one believes in him... Bunny felt bad for Jack. He didn't even remember Emma even though he saved her.

       "So, if you don't mind me asking, how did you die?" Bunny asked.

       She glanced down at her feet, a tear falling onto her cheek, but disappeared before it fell off her chin.

       "I passed away from a sickness. I lived 8 years after Jack saved me. Then I got a fever and passed away." She smiled. "But you can't stop death, right?" She asked.

       "Right." Bunny agreed. "Do you happen to know where his teeth capsule is?" Asked Bunny.

      She nodded. "Its by the lake side where our old house used to be. Right by the almost dead pine tree." She said.

      Bunny  grabbed his boomerangs, getting ready to run to the tree. "Thanks." He said. "I will make sure he doesn't forget you." He started hopping, until he heard his name being called.

     "Bunny! Make sure he doesn't disappear! Please promise me you will take care of him! " she shouted. "Tell him I said thanks! And that I love him!"

     Bunny glanced back, seeing the area clear of any light or balls of fire. He chuckled. I won't let you down Emma. Bunny thought to himself before continuing on.
