A/N: Hey guys! This is a new story off of Rise of the Guardians, and it's main character is Jack Frost and a OC which you will meet soon :D I probably sound really gay, but i'm not good at this. This is my first Fanfiction anyways, next to my Naruto OC's story and a novel I am writing. Sorry about any grammatical errors, i went over this, but it's possible to miss something
Anyways, the story starts out slow and the chapter is really short, but give it time, it'll get better. The OC and Jack may or may not become a couple, I'm still debating but either way it doesn't affect much of what I plan for this story, maybe you guys could help me choose. Oh and please review! I really take critique well and want to learn how to make my writing better because I absolutely love to write and would love the support!
Well….Here we go...
Chapter 1- A Spirit is Born
Jack woke up to the evening sun. He didn't sleep much considering he was immortal and didn't need it, but decided the world could live the day without intended snow.
It's been about seven years since he became a guardian. To him, that wasn't very long, but seeing he hasn't screwed up the entire time surprised him.
He laughed thinking of the time when him and Bunnymund hated each other, now they were good friends. Tooth, Sandy, and North as well. Christmas just passed a month and a half ago, and it's now February, the date exactly, Jack could care less.
For Christmas, Jack received a new hoodie from North, and a black cloak from Tooth. His new appearance consisted of a dark blue hoodie with three large silver snowflakes decorating it, and white pants with blue twine to tie off the ends. His style was very much the same, though he looked different. Today he decided to wear the cloak; he buttoned only the part around his neck and threw the rest behind him, like a cape.
His hair, as always, was white and spikey, and his eyes icy blue.
He hoped off the branch he lain on and grabbed his oddly shaped staff. The moment his pale fingers touched the wooden rod, a blue frosty pulse ran though the entire structure, away from his hand.
Jack smirked at the rod, then swooped up into the air. The air swirled around his slender figure, supporting him in midair.
"Hey wind, take me to Jamie's!" Jack yelled to the invisible gas. Almost immediately, he was taken to the small town of Burgess in Pennsylvania. He smiled as he soared through the sky. Just a few minutes in the air, he arrived to his destination, not forgetting to frost everything on his way.
The moment he got there, Jack hid in a tree above Jamie's house. Jamie sat with the girl known as Pippa on the staircase by the house.
Pippa's hair had now grown more, but she still wore a beanie. She wore a dark blue New York jacket and black leggings, while Jamie wore his hockey uniform and jacket.
Jack smiled lightly as he noticed Jamie handing Pippa a small heart shaped box.
Jack leaned in closer to hear what they were saying.
"Hope you like it, Pippa," Jamie whispered in a sultry way to her. She blushed before giggling.
She opened the box and in it was a silver heart shaped pendant, ornamented with diamonds and small white snowflakes. Pippa gasped at the sight, as well as Jack mouthing the word 'wow'. She opened the pendant and on the inside said five words and a picture of Jamie and Pippa.
Jamie repeated the words into Pippa's ear, "Will you be my Valentine?"
Pippa squealed and threw herself into Jamie's arms, yelping the word 'yes' over and over.
Jack chuckled at the young display of affection and decided to have some fun. A mischievous smirk spread across his face. He pointed his staff over to the couple and frosted them together.
The looks of Jamie and Pippa's face made Jack laugh so hard that he fell out of the tree.
"JACK!" Jamie yelled, still stuck around Pippa. Amused, Jack stood and used his staff as a cane to help himself up.
"Ha, I'm sorry Jamie, couldn't help myself," Jack breathed through laughs.
"At least unfreeze us!" Jamie murmured. Jack obeyed and unfroze the two. Pippa had a bright red face, while Jamie held a small pink blush.
"So, wait, what's with all this? Is today Valentine's day?" Jack asked.
"No, Valentine's is in two days, on Sunday. But it doesn't hurt to ask early," Jamie said and looked over to Pippa. Jack made fake gagging noises to get their attention back.
"Oh Valentine's…the best time to pull pranks," Jack winked at the kids. They laughed at him again, but before Jack could make another remark, he saw something in the sky. An aurora, and he knew what that meant.
"Wow, pretty," Pippa said.
"Um, I have to go, I'll see you guys later," Jack shuffled his rod around. Jamie would get upset.
"Why do you have to go already? You always only visit for like five minutes, then leave for like two months!" Jamie pouted childishly. Though he may be fourteen, he acts five sometimes.
"I'll come back soon. Tomorrow. I promise," Jack said, holding out his pinky. Jamie reluctantly took it and saw Jack off. Pippa squeezed Jamie's hand and gave him a look as if to tell him, "Trust him."
Jack flew to the North Pole as fast as the wind could carry him. He wanted to prove he had responsibility, and wasn't always aloof. By the time he got there, all the other guardians had already made it.
"Nice of ye' to show up, mate," commented Bunnymund. Jack gave him a look that read, "really?"
"Yea, I'm sorry. Not really used to…this," Jack said, scratching the back of his head.
"Never mind that," North began, deep voice booming in a Russian accent, "we have news… from Man in Moon."
Jack looked very excited, he hasn't been present to find information only meant for the guardians yet.
"What, what is it? Did he say it yet?" Jack pounced up and down happily, but North just gave a soft smile at the undying teen.
"No, he wanted us all present. Come to circle. Stand on symbol with your face," North instructed and pointed at the small construction of Jack's face on the ground in marble. Tooth, Sandy, and Bunnymund had all done the same.
The moment all of the guardians had stepped on their respectful positions, the moon glowed brightly in the now-dark sky. In the window it came through showing a silhouette. Of a girl, Jack thought. Suddenly, the Man in the Moon's deep, rich voice penetrated his head.
"A new spirit."
That's all. That's all he said. Then the moon stopped shining, and the silhouette remained. He could tell the girl wore a dress, but her face was too dark and blurry to tell. With her was a bow, very clearly, and she had wavy hair. Abruptly, Bunnymund spoke.
"A new spirit, ey? Wonder who she might be spirit of," Bunny asked more himself than the others.
"Well, what do we do with this information?" Jack shrugged his shoulders.
"We go meet them, that's what!" Tooth exclaimed happily. Her british accent had faded even more over the years. Baby tooth chirped in agreement. Jack was about to laugh at her outburst, but he realized something.
"Hey! Why wasn't I ever greeted?" Jack argued. The other guardians looked around in confusion, then to Bunnymund.
"Bunny was to welcome you…" North travelled off. Bunny let off a light worried laugh.
"Oh, was I? Sorry mate…" Bunnymund sweat-dropped and Jack scoffed.
"Of course. Only me," Jack pulled a guilt trip on everyone. He ignored everyone and took another look at the new spirit's silhouette. He then turned around.
"Who's gonna go meet her?" Jack jut a thumb to the shadow.
'You,' Sandy seemed to say. Well, he nodded his head towards Jack and pointed to him.
"M-me? What?" Jack asked. He got a confused expression.
"Well, you haven't don' it yet," Tooth mumbled.
"Exactly! I don't know what to do!" Jack debated while flailing his staff around.
"Just go meet 'er, tell 'er what's happened to 'er an' ask how she died an'-"
"Wait, you just want me to go and ask her 'Oh, how did you die?' Like really. That's stupid," Jack said, interrupting Bunny.
"Well, no," Tooth began, "more like ease her into it, become friends with her, you know? Like how Mother Nature did with Sandy when he became a spirit, and Father Time did with North and the Dolas when they became spirits. Bunny tried to befriend Pitch, whom, as you know, became lost to the darkness. You see, just be her friend and make her feel not so alone," Tooth explained in a motherly fashion.
Jack just scoffed. There's no way Tooth could understand. She's always had someone, always been believed in. Who knows whom this person might be, she could be evil, just like Pitch or Flame. Maybe she would be a summer spirit; she could be his polar opposite, like Mother Nature and Ala, the goddess of bad weather.
"Oh, come on Jack, maybe you could make a real friend, instead of us and your human friends," North tried to reason with him. Jack looked over to the large man and saw the look in his eyes. He hit a soft spot.
Friends.
Jack honestly didn't have many. Mostly the children of his hometown were whom he considered friends, even though they hadn't noticed him until only recently. And when his human friends died, he would have to live with a very clear pain in himself. Maybe he did wish to have a spirit friend, not one of the guardians though, they are usually busy all year long anyways. It would be nice to have a friend though, and he would feel warmth to at least know that he kept someone from being lonely.
He gave in.
"Fine, where is this girl?"
The sky was clear tonight. Not a cloud in sight; just many stars twinkling along side to the enormous Moon.
Jack arrived to an area in the mountains in a remote place. In the mountains, the Moon seemed vary large.
The place where the spirit was supposed to have been was by an enormous castle. He flew around for where he felt the most spiritual energy, and it was towards the back of the palace. Behind the castle was a marble porch, which overlooked a cliff into a valley filled with flowers.
The drop made Jack gulp. He could only think that the way the girl died was by falling off here, but then again, humans only become spirits if the Man in the Moon thought they did something noble enough. He looked up to the Moon in question, then, receiving no response, looked away again.
As Jack over looked into the valley, a glimmering light caught his eye. He squinted to see closer, only to spot a girl, no older than sixteen, laying on a part of the cliff that had protruded out. Jack's eyes widened.
She lay on the stone, looking as if she was dead. Though she wasn't, it was a close guess. She was a spirit, a newborn spirit.
She had skin as white as a piece of newly pressed paper. Jack was sure that was unhealthy. She wore a pink, strapless bow buckle dress. The dress was a bit shorter than knee-length and seemed to be made of pure silk, though it still held its shape with help of the mesh underneath it. The tied bow was on her left side and was made of pure white silk with a ruby heart shaped buckle in the middle. The ruby sparkled under the Moon's light.
Jack flew down to her. As he did, her skin slowly regained colour, becoming a light peach. She had rich dark brown hair with messy waves and curls. Her bangs resembled Jack's younger sister's, and they were straight to.
If Jack didn't know any better, he would think she was a model, with her perfect skin and the glow that seemed to radiate off her. Suddenly, Jack became interested in her story. Was she a princess? Why is she down here? How did she get down here? Was she at a ball? Do they even have balls anymore? What noble deed did she do to earn the right of a spirit?
…How did she die?
Jack noticed her shuffling and moved away. He didn't want to seem a creeper, right? Instead of even making his presence noticed, he hid under the bulging rock, covering his head with both the blue, and black hoods.
The girl scuffled and mumbled to herself. She began murmuring words like "no," and "don't," and "stop."
Jack was about to get closer until…
"NO! LIZ, WATCH OUT!" The girl screamed.
A/N: That's the first chapter! Hope it wasn't to bad. Thought that was a good way to stop the chapter, otherwise it would get to long. Wanna take a guess at who Liz is? I'll let you ponder on that :} Pleasseee review! I need to know if I should continue, I don't want to write a story no one reads :(
