Rise Of The Guardians
Jacks Anguish
It has been almost two years since The Guardians defeated Pitch Black with the help of winter spirit Jack Frost, who was then added to the ranks of the Guardians.
In that time, Jack has bonded with the Guardians and now views them as the family he forgot, he has gained a few more previous believers and yet still has time for snow ball fights in Burgess.
All was well…
But now darkness is stirring. And it wants revenge.
"Look its Jack Frost!"
Jack smiled at the dozens of children who stood in front of him staring in awe at his staff and the snow that was whirling around its tip.
Many of the children in front of him where somehow connected to his first original 6 believers and had found out about him from them and now for the first time they could see him.
It was an amazing feeling. Jack wouldn't lie, to be able to see their reactions when they saw him for the first time.
"Ok everyone who's ready for the best snow day ever?!" Jack yelled, his voice being drowned up by the chorus of yells and screams.
Jack Frost, the 300 year old winter spirit and Guardian of Fun smiled at their eager faces, this was what he loved doing.
The other Guardians had their jobs keeping hope, wonder and dreams alive in children, it was my job to keep fun alive in the children of the world, and I loved it.
Three hours later, when the fight finally drew to a close there wasn't a child in all of Burgess who at some point hadn't come out and joined the fight.
Slowly the children returned home yelling their thanks to Jack for the snow day and for the snowball fight until finally it was just Jamie, Sophie and Jack.
"So same again tomorrow kid?" Jack was balancing seemingly effortlessly on the tip of his staff looking down at his two favourite kids.
"Yea, but tomorrow we will beat you!" Jamie quickly threw the snowball he had been concealing behind his back at Jack knocking him off of his perch and into the snow.
After a few minutes of Jack chasing Jamie and mercilessly throwing snowballs at him while Sophie stood by and laughed despite Jamie's pleas for help, Anna Bennett called her two children inside and wondered just what it was about snow that excited children so much.
