"Okay, look.." Jamie sighs towards his stuffed rabbit, the little toys big eyes watching the boy with interest.

"You and I are obviously at what they call a crossroads. So, here's what's gonna happen."

Jack watches form outside the boys window, his hood pulled up as (Y/N) listens with her backs against the window.

"I believed in you for a long time, okay Like..my whole life in fact!" Jamie picks up the bunny as he stares at it. "So you kind of owe me now. You don't have to do much..just a little sign so I know..anything.."

The spirits listen carefully, waiting for something, someone, to come and help.

"I knew it." Jamie tosses the bunny on the floor, staring at his bed in sadness. (Y/N) sighs as she leans back, Jack looking down before an idea forms in his head.

He watches as frost slowly forms against the window, it's beautiful design catching (Y/N)'s attention. The girl watches as Jack draws a bunny against the window, a chubby body and small, round ears.

This catches Jamie's attention, as he watches curiously as the bunny forms out of his window, into a physical form. Jack releases the creature, (Y/N) watching with a smile as she stands near Jamie's bed, the boy giggling wildly as the bunny hops along his walls.

It forms in the center before exploding into a rain of snowflakes, all decorating the boys room before dissolving into nothing.

(Y/N) giggles happily as the wind suddenly picked up, the beautiful scent of tulips filling the air.

Jamie takes in a deep breath, his senses coming to as a snowflake lands on his nose. He wrinkles his face for a moment before gasping, his mind flashing with images of a boy with white hair, and a girl with a big red coat.

"Jack Frost and Horae.."

Both teens stop short of their small celebration before looking towards Jamie, eyes wide. The boy tunes around slowly, his mouth dropping open as he takes in the two people in his room.

"Jack Frost and Horae!" He breaths out, (Y/N) cringing slightly at the name while Jack stares at the boy with clouded eyes.

"That's right!" Jack exclaims, "But that's..that's us! Jack Frost and Horae!" He motions between eachother, an apologetic look as he turns to (Y/N).

"You said our names.." (Y/N) breaths out, looking to the boy with hope. "Can you..hear us?" She mumbles, gasping as Jamie nods slowly.

"Can you..can you see us?" Again, he nods, causing Jack and her to look to eachother with teary eyes.

"He sees us!" Jack exclaims, turning and hugging his friend close to his body. (Y/N) cries at the feeling, a wobbly smile on her face as she hugs him back tight.

"You just made it snow!" Jamie laughs as he looks around.

"I know!" Jack grins in reply, his hands shaking with excitement.

"And you're Horae?" He questions, (Y/N) nodding but then shaking her head.

"(Y/N)..actually.."

The boy nods happily, grinning like a kid on Christmas. "You're both real?!" Jamie bounces on his bed as Jack leaps into the air.

"Yeah!" Jack yells as he begins to pace around. "Who do you think brings you all the blizzards and the snow days?"

"And who brings you warm weather and flowers?" (Y/N) questions in a light tone she chuckles. "And..do you remember when you went flying on that sled the other day?" She raises a brow as she smirks Jack's way, Jamie gasping.

"That was you?!"

"Well, it was both of us." Jack laughs, making (Y/N) scoff lightly as Jamie looks between the two.

"And are you two..yknow.." he urges with a smile, both Jacks and (Y/N) watching him with light chuckles.

Jack goes to shake his head, but stops short as (Y/N) leans up and places a gentle kiss against his cold cheek. She leans away, looking to Jamie and wrapping an arm around Jacks waist, pulling the dazed boy against her.

"Yes..actually."

"..whoah."

Jamie and (Y/N) giggle at Jacks dazed expression, the boy looking to his friend with blurry eyes before leaning down quickly and kissing her square on the lips.

(Y/N) yelps at the unsuspecting kiss but laughs it off as Jamie continues to smile at the two.

"What--what about the Easter Bunny? And the Tooth Fairy?! I-I mean-"

"Real, real!" (Y/N) interrupts with a wide grin as Jamie bounces in excitement. "Every one of us is real."

Jack picks up his bunny as Jamie firmly jumps with a triumphant smile, "I knew it!"

"Jamie? Who are you talking to?" A voice calls from downstairs, making Jamie gasp and flinch.

(Y/N) smiles, nodding as Jamie looks at them. Jack smirks, tilting his head in encouragement to reply. "Um...Jack Frost and Horae?" His mom pauses for a moment before chuckling, "Okay.."

Jamie giggles as Jack and (Y/N) laugh, their smiles instantly gone as Jamie's windows slams open.

The wind blows restlessly outside as thunder bellows across the sky, the sky black and cloudy.

Jack rushes towards the window, jumping up, he watches as more nightmares rush by, all reacting to a strong power in the distance.

...

North's sleigh flies out of control, North yelling frantically. The sleigh rams into the ground, the metal scraping against the street before the reindeer break free, running away.

"Ah, moi deti! Come back!" North desperately yells as he sits up, swaying.

"North, are you okay?" Tooth questions as she peeks her head up, helping him stand. "Is official. My powers are kaput."

North gasps as Tooth releases him, falling back as she sees Jack. "Look!" Tooth gasps with a smile as Jack flies to them. "Jack!" She tries flying, falling to the ground before rising with a weak smile.

(Y/N) wraps her arms around her friend before pulling her up. Tooth smiles weakly, looking away sheepishly to avoid eye contact.

North smiles as he walks forward, using his sword as a walking stick.

"What are you two doing here?"

"Same as you." Jack smiles, looking back at (Y/N) as she looks behind her. Jamie looks at North and Tooth in awe, a wide smile on his face.

"The last light.." the Russian stumbles forward with a chuckle.

"Wow! It is you...I mean, it is you!" Jamie laughs as he rushes towards North. North offers his hand with a fond smile as Jamie laughs, touching it before looking back at Jack and (Y/N).

"I knew it wasn't a dream!"

Tooth gasps softly as a smile forms on her lips, North looking up at Jack and (Y/N) with a grin.

"Jack..(Y/N)..he sees you.'

Jack playfully nudges Jamie's shoulder as
(Y/N) walks next to him, ruffling Jamie's hair as he giggles.

"Wait...where's Bunny?" Jack suddenly questions, making (Y/N) gasp softly.

"Losing Easter took its toll on all of us," North sighs, looking back as (Y/N)'s eyes widen at a somewhat familiar bunny. "Bunny most of all." "No way," she breathes out as Bunny sighs, leaping onto the side of the sleigh.

"Oh, no." Jack groans as Bunny hops onto the wing, his nose twitching.

He was, tiny? Very tiny, he had shrunken a huge amount, now he was just the size of a regular rabbit.

Jamie laughs as he walks over, his brow raised.

"That's the Easter Bunny?"

"Now somebody sees me!" Bunny scoffs as he rises to his feet. "Where were you about an hour ago, mate?!"

"What happened to him?" Jamie questions as
(Y/N) walks back to Jack, looking at North with raised brows. "He used to be huge and cool!"

Bunny's ears droop as he sighs, Jamie continuing.

"And now he's.." He rubs under Bunny's chin, making his leg bounce. "Cute."

"Did you tell him to say that?" Bunny demands, smacking Jamie's hands away before running at Jack. "That's it! Let's go, me and you!"

"Wait, wait, Bunny!" (Y/N) picks him up by his scruff as he thrashes against her hold.

"He told me you were real!" Jamie quickly says as she sets Bunny down. "Just when I started to think...that maybe you weren't."

"He made you believe?" Bunny softly questions as he looks over at Jack. "In me?"

Jamie nods with a smile as Bunny looks at Jack, his nose twitching as he smiles. Jack grins back, looking to (Y/N) as she shrugs with a smile.

Thunder cracks across the sky as the group all look up with gasps, a black mast quickly approaching.

"Here we go.."
