Summary
Mother Nature glowers at the older spirit. "You owe me," she says.
Pitch sighs dramatically. "If I must."
Mother Nature bites back a smirk and presses Jack a bit closer to her. "You must," she parrots. Then turning away from the two males, she says to Pitch, "I'll be back in a couple days." She tilts her head in thought then. "By the end of the week, at latest."
One taloned hand coming to grip Jack Frost's shoulder, Pitch acknowledges the contract with a dip of his chin. "I'll eat him for dinner if you aren't back in time."
Mother Nature's head swerves, a funny smirk upon her face. "Well, I'll just have to keep to my promise, won't I?" Fog materializes around the woman and then, she's gone.
Turning his innocent face up to the Nightmare King, Jack questions fearfully, "You won't eat me, will you?"
Pitch chuckles darkly. "If you behave, no, I don't think so."
