Chapter one: Meeting the Seasons
It was a usual day of mischief for Jack Frost, the spirit of Winter and the Guardian of Fun. Today he's wandering around his hometown, Burgess. Since it's two weeks away from Spring he needs to make it up to Jamie with a snowball fight. He haven't visited Jamie and the other kids because he's a full-time Guardian now. He have duties and responsibilities.
When he passed through the forest, something caught his eye. A part of the forest have blooming flowers and budding grass but it's currently Winter.
He landed on that part of the forest. With his staff he tapped the tree's bark, covering it with frost. He walked backwards to enjoy the flowers. The flowers are blooming,colorful and fragrant. It's weird though, he's not really fund of flowers because he's a boy and flowers is more of a girl stuff, obviously. Then he bumped to something, when he turned around it was a girl.
A flash of memory entered his mind. The same memory of him saving his sister, but there's more. After he fell into the lake a girl with brown pixie-cut hair and emerald green eyes dove in and tried to save him but failed. The memory ended.
"I'm really sorry, I wasn't really paying attention on where I'm going," the girl quickly said, picking up her basket of flowers and apples. "I'm sorry too, let me help you with that," Jack helped picking up the flowers and apples and putting them in the basket.
"It's okay, I can do it myself," the girl shook her head. Jack stood up,"Wait a minute, you can see me?" he asked.
"Yeah, am I not supposed to? I mean we're both spirits am I right?" the girl stood up, giggling.
Jack have a better view of what she looks like. The girl have blonde hair tied into a thick braid with flowers that stopped below her ankles. She's wearing a purple dress that consists a lavander corset top tied with a pink lace. The skirt is darker shade of purple, but still bright and decorated with swirl designs, in pink, dark purple and white. She also wears a white petticoat underneath. Her sleeves, at the top, are puffed and striped, pink and lavender, and the rest, is a pale, baby pink, with white lace at the end. She's barefooted and she have a basket on her other hand.
"You're a spirit, too?" Jack asked dumb-founded. "Yeah. I'm Rapunzel, spirit of Spring," the girl extended her hand. Jack stared at it then realized, "Oh, I'm Jack. Jack Frost, spirit of Winter, Guardian of fun," Jack shook Rapunzel's hand.
"Jack Frost? Bunny and Tooth tells me tales about you," Rapunzel rubbed her hands together, feeling cold. "Bunny and Tooth? You know them?" Jack swung his staff to his shoulder.
"Uh-huh, I help Bunny with the Easter eggs and I lend some of my helpers to Tooth," Rapunzel smiled. Jack stared at her with awe.
"Oh, look at the time, I should get going! Spring is two weeks away and I have preparations to do," Rapunzel planted a seed on the ground then sprinkled some dust substance on it.
"Can I help in any way?" Jack smirked. "Uh, I suppose you can help a little, my fairies are a bit protective if there's an unknown visitor but yeah I guess you can help," Rapunzel hid her hands behind her back.
"Great, let's go then," Jack floated. "I don't fly and my tulip would take us there faster," Rapunzel took a step backwards then a gigantic tulip sprouted from the ground and opened slowly.
"Whoa," Jack chuckled, Rapunzel hopped in the tulip, gesturing Jack to do the same. "I think the flower is to small for us," Jack observed the flower. "My tulip is larger than it looks, trust me," Rapunzel smiled. Jack nodded then floated inside and Rapunzel closed the flower and she was right. The flower is bigger than it looks. After a few seconds the flower opened again.
They were teleported in front of a cave covered with vines. Rapunzel and Jack entered the cave.
Behind the cave was a beautiful tower covered with vines and flowers. Behind the tower flows a magnificent waterfall, its water reflecting the sunlight.
Then one of Bunny's hole appeared on the ground. "Hello Sunshine," Bunny hopped out of the hole.
"Hi Bunny!" Rapunzel hugged the six foot pooka. "What's Frostbite doin' here?" Bunny turned to Jack. "He said he wanted to help, " Rapunzel cheerfully said.
"Okay, but if you do something horrible to little Rapunzel you'll be dead to me," Bunny glared at Jack, "Why are you so attached to her? Huh, Cottontail?" Jack glared back.
"She's like a daughter to me, mate. She's a spring spirit wot' do ye' excpect? Well, in this case I don't have to worry, she have Pascal, Flame and her warrior pixies with her, they'll deal with you," Bunny smirked. While Jack rolled his eyes.
"Pascal? Where are you?" Rapunzel called out. "Hmm.. probably playing with Flame," Rapunzel smirked.
"By the way Rapunzel, I need to colors from you for this Easter," Bunny hopped to Rapunzel. "I think, Pacific blue with golden glitters," Rapunzel fiddled with a loose strand on her braid, smiling. "Thanks, mate," Bunny hopped in his holes and disappeared.
"Where's your work shop?" Jack asked.
"Behind the waterfalls,"
The water of the falls divided into two to make way for Rapunzel and Jack. Inside of the waterfalls are working pixies.
"Okay, everyone! Let's take five!" Rapunzel clapped her hands, the pixies headed to little cherry blossom trees and rested. "Let me take you for a tour!" Rapunzel took Jack's cold hand and strolled.
"Here's where the flowers are painted," Rapunzel walked to a table with a lot of paint and paintbrush and sprays. "Here's where the herbs get there smell and taste," the table was filled with different kinds of herbs.
"And here's the main part. The dust, it's what we use to help the early bloomers bloom faster than the others. This is a cherry blossom dust, it will help the cherry blossoms look prettier than usual," Rapunzel smiled.
"C-can you teach me how to make these?" Jack smirked.
"Sure, role up your sleeves and let's start working!" Rapunzel took a baking roller-like pin from one of the drawers.
"A spoonful of frosting, some cherry blossom petals, a handful of pollen and a kiss of the sun," Rapunzel gestured every ingredient and placed it on the table.
"A spoonful of frosting and a kiss of the sun?" Jack raised his eyebrow. "Yeah, it's just what I call them, the frosting is really just pixie dust and the kiss from the sun is a sprinkle of my magic," Rapunzel grinded the ingredients with her rolling pin.
"Here, place your hand in each ends and gently roll them on the petals," Rapunzel took Jack's hand and placed it on the handle of the rolling pin.
Jack tried so many times. It's either to fine or to thick, it seems like he can't do it like Rapunzel makes it.
"Having a hard time?" Rapunzel giggled, "Yeah," Jack smirked.
"Let me help you, grinding these aren't so hard, really. You just need to be gentle, treat it gently and slowly. You'll get the hang of it," Rapunzel placed her hands over Jack's and guided Jack's. Her head leaning on Jack's shoulder. Jack is a little taller than Rapunzel.
Jack felt butterflies on his stomach with the Spring spirit's touch.
Before he knew it, there was a bunch of armored pixies poking him violently with little spears.
"Hey, hey. Stop it! ouch," Jack waved his hands in defeat. "Warriors assemble!" Rapunzel yelled, the armored pixies stopped attacking the Winter spirit and lined up. "Sorry, they're not comfortable with a new visitor around," Rapunzel giggled nervously.
"Feisty little creatures are they?" Jack sarcasticaly said. Then a little girl about ten years old walked in. She have ash black hair with red glowing streaks tied into a pony tail, she have hazel eyes. She's wearing a red short sleeved hoodie, a brown ruffled skirt that stops on her mid thigh, a black belt with a whip, and a pair of ankle boots.
"Who's he?!" she screamed, pointing at Jack. "Flame, this is Jack Frost, spirit of Winter. Jack that is Flame Twilights, spirit of Summer.
"Oh, here's Pascal," Flame took a green chameleon from her shoulder and gave it to Rapunzel. "Thanks," Rapunzel smiled.
"Twilights," Jack smirked. "Frostie," Flame crossed her arms. It's really normal for a winter spirit and a summer spirit to hate each other's guts since their the complete opposite.
Flame's signature color is red. Jack's signature color is blue. Flame is the hottest being on the planet next to the Earth's core, not like Jack she's a child. Her power is controlling fire, releasing heat waves and everything that includes warmth. Jack is the coldest being on the planet, he's a teenager. His power obviously includes everything cold. But they have something in common, they are both mischief and trouble makers, although Jack is more mature compared to Flame.
"I bet your here to destroy Easter again, like the '68?" Flame teased. "Nah, I'm just here to help," Jack smirked. "Yeah like your good with flowers," Flame chuckled. "What makes you so brilliant?" Jack swung his staff to his shoulder. Flame glared at Jack then suddenly the ingredients behind her burned and turned into ashes. "Perfect!" Flame exclaimed showing it to Rapunzel. Rapunzel placed Flame's creation with the perfectly made dust.
"You may wanna beat that," Flame stuck out her tongue. "Very mature," Jack rolled his eyes and continued grinding.
To be continued...
A/N: Hi there! This is my first Jackunzel fanfic so please go easy on me with the random fluff. I own nothing except my O.C.s (original character/original creature)
Flame is inspired by Vanellope Von Schweetz from Wreck-it Ralph. She's feisty, naughty and sweet. Her hair turns into flames when she's angry. Her hazel eyes turn to mad red when she's also angry or in rage. Her whip turns to flames by her will, she obviously the opposite of Jack Frost.
Here are their differences:
- Jack is a boy, Flame is a girl
-Jack is a teenager, Flame is a kid
-Jack is Winter, Flame is Summer
-Jack is cold (literally), Flame is hot (literally)
-Jack is pale, Flame is lightly tanned
There's more to be mentioned but I'll write them in the next chapters. Please review and suggest!
