(Author's Note: This is one of my older short stories that I typed up a while back. I decided to put it up just for the heck of it. Jack Frost is super sexy in this movie, okay? Too many people say this movie was awful but I guess it was just tolerable because um.. Hello? Did you see Mr. skillful and delicious? Yeahhh guilty as charged, baby xD... I hope this story is tolerable. Probably not my best but eh when I get a plot bunny going it just hops into action. Anyways, enough blah blah blah and let us get to the point. STORY COMMENCE. *flies away* )

Chapter I: A chilling responsibility

Hallo A.K.A Halloween flew down on her broom stick down from the entrance of the North Pole that was held high in the colorful sky. The elves that were nearby looked up in curiosity at the unexpected visitor that had showed for an emergency meeting that had been called forth. Hallo stepped down on to the cold soft snow and looked around in awe at all the bright lights, decorations, and cheer that surrounded the place. It was so different then what Hallo was acquainted too.

"Why hello there miss. Are you Halloween?" a small female childish looking elf stared up at the red-head saint.

"Ah, yes do you know where the council is having the meeting?" Hallo responded while looking down at the blond haired elf.

"Yes, let me take you there," the elf then reached out and took Hallo's hand, and led her to the meeting room.

The tiny elf opened the door for Hallo and let her walk inside. Hallo entered the room and saw the legendary council members sitting down at a long table.

"Ah, Halloween so glad you actually showed up this time. Is this your first meeting?" Mother Nature stated jokingly and yet sounded strict at the same time. Hallo laughed nervously and took a step forward to the table and took a seat next to the Tooth Fairy; who gave her a glance of a pink tinge that glowed on his face before looking away quickly. Hallo sighed and slumped back into the chair.

"So Mother N, what's with the dramatic emergency meeting we have here..?" Hallo asked while looking at her black and orange neatly painted nails with a bored expression. Mother Nature sighed and shook her head while ignoring her in the process.

"Santa, we thought you should see this." Mother Nature said turning to Santa while taking out a card board cut out of an icy looking man.

"Alright, ignore me then. That's cool." Hallo muttered while turning her eyes over to the card board cut out.

"Silver bells…" Santa muttered loudly in annoyance.

"I found two hundred and seventy three of these at shopping malls scattered across the North West. I hereby call this special counsel of the legendary figures to order."

Santa scowled deeply and took a seat down as the rest of the court and began making slick comments and different other motions. Once Mother Nature was done scolding the Easter Bunny for making fun of Cupid's dress she regained her composure and looked back at everyone.

"Our first annual and only order of business is the disciplinary action to be taken against council member Jack Frost," Mother Nature spoke while glancing at each of the council members.

"I don't think I've ever met him before." Hallo spoke up while looking up from her nails to Mother Nature's strict eyes. Mother Nature cleared her throat to indicate Hallo's silence and went on with her never-ending blabbering.

"Now that's what I'm talking about," an unexpected voice said. It was the same man that was on the card board cut out but this time in the flesh.

He began to walk over to the table and Hallo swore she felt the temperature of the room drop a couple degrees. He looked over the many different people but his eyes landed on Hallo for a moment and seemed to stay there for a lingering moment. 'Oh, and just who is she?' Jack thought to himself as his interest in the new girl he had never seen before begin to rise. Jack then pulled his eyes from Hallo and grinned, "Well you guys finally decided to give me my own holiday, huh?" Jack mused with much humor in his tone. The whole council sneered to Hallo's surprise, she had a feeling Jack wasn't a likable person. "You, know I'm way open; Frost-giving, Frost of July, Frost hog day, I mean the possibilities are endless!" Jack continued determinedly.

"Frost hog day," Hallo snickered to herself and Jack looked at her with a tilted head "What..? Don't like the sound of that? What about Frostmas or St. Frosts' day!"

"Oh, how very clever Mr. Frost…!" Hallo laughed at Jack's silly holiday names. Jack smirked at her but was interrupted by the smashing down of the gavel that Mother Nature had.

"Jack, you are hereby charged with two hundred and seventy three counts of attempted upstaging of Santa Clause." Jack's expression dropped and he pointed to himself in "shock". "You froze a volcano in Hawaii, You made it snow in the Amazon, and you frosted Mexico sending all the geese North for the winter! You have violated the legendary figure code of conduct in a manner both willful and malicious!"

Jack shrugged innocently then pointed his finger at Mother Nature to make a point "Excuse me, but did you accuse me of being skillful and delicious? Guilty as charged! " Jack declared goofily. Hallo burst out in laughter again while putting her face on to the table while still cracking up.

"See at least someone has a sense of humor. Though I wasn't really joking," Jack winked at no one in particular and glanced, Hallo's way then smiled from her amusement. Hallo pulled her head up and looked at Jack with a grin which was returned by Jack.

"Jack you're a keeper of the season not a holiday," Father of Time spoke up crushing Jack's grin in too an unpleasant frown.

"You're a best friend not the leading man," the Tooth Fairy added, "And you kill fruit!" The Easter Bunny also shot out at Jack.

"All in favor of suspending Jack Frost from the legendary council please say-""Wait a minute, Wait a minute!" Jack interrupted Father Time with urgency. With that… All chaos then broke loose. Jack began arguing with Santa about how he got all the adoring fans and different holiday peeks of being a holiday. Santa then stood up and began complaining and ranting about how hard his life is which made Hallo scowl and sink back into her chair. She already had a sour tooth for Santa for always pushing her holiday aside but she didn't hate him.

"Ya know if it were me in the red suit, I'd go for the escape clause," Cupid said. If Jack had a light bulb on top of his head, Hallo thought she saw it shine for he looked really interested in what Cupid had just blubbered out.

"Escape Clause… What's that?" Jack asked with a sly tone to his voice.

"Maybe if you'd attend a meeting once in a while you'd know." Father of Time shot back at Jack sarcastically.

"Jack's not the only one who has hard time attending meetings." Mother Nature said while glancing in Hallo's direction.

"Hey, it's busy work being a holiday!" Hallo said offensively.

"Your holiday passed, Hallo…"

"Yeah well, I still have to prepare for next year…" Hallo huffed in irritation.

Mother Nature shook her head and rolled her eyes. Meanwhile, Jack was pleading with everyone to give him a second chance. Hallo knew that Santa was going to give in… He wouldn't be the jolly always happy saint if he didn't Next thing, Hallo heard was Jack had a second chance but was very limited with what he could do at the North Pole, under Santa's demands, of course.

"That's very forgiving of you Mr. Clause but just in case I want someone to keep an eye on Mr. Frost." Mother Nature said while looking sternly at Jack who didn't look the least from pleased with Mother Nature's comment.

"I hereby declare Halloween to keep supervision over Jack Frost...!" Hallo suddenly shot up while bashing her fists on the table with her mouth dropped.

"Are you joking, Mother N? I have things to prepare for next autumn. I can't sit here and babysit people!" Hallo hollered at Mother Nature in sheer annoyance. Jack had the "ho-hum" expression that read, "I wouldn't say babysit."

Mother Nature sent one last glum look at Hallo then knocked her gavel down on the table

"Motion carried!" Hallo scowled loudly and stormed out of the door looking scary as a monster hiding under a bed. Jack followed after Hallo and stepped in front of her briskly.

"Looks like we're going to be seeing a lot of each other from now on…!" Jack acknowledged sweetly to Hallo.

Hallo glowered and looked at Jack eye to eye. "Thanks to you, I'm stuck here in the cold." Hallo sneered.

"Aw, does someone not like a little frost?" Hallo sighed and narrowed her dark brownish orange eyes at Jack.

"It's not that… Look I'm sorry, I'm just a little miffed at Mother N." Jack nodded in understanding and put his hand on Hallo's shoulder as they walked outside. His touch was so cold and yet it had a feeling of comfort that seemed very unnatural. It sent chills down Hallo's spine.

"She is known to be very cold must even I admit but I don't think it's that bad. After all you get to hang around me." Jack inquired with a cute grin.

"Mr. Frost you don't even know me. Why in the world would you want me to be around you?" Hallo paused and looked at Jack questioningly.

"Well we can fix this problem. Though I'm sure you know my name… I am Frost, Jack Frost!" Jack spoke with pride entwined with every word.

"I'm Halloween." Hallo replied calmly, while trying to avoid staring at Jack's beautiful dark sapphire eyes.

Jack smiled slyly and took Hallo's hand up to his lips and kissed it for a nice long moment. Hallo's face reddened in embarrassment as she looked down at the frosted man in front of her. She felt a great chill on her knuckles where he kissed them softly. Jack pulled away and looked at her with a fresh smile.

"I look forward to seeing you around, Hallo." Jack said lowly then turned away and gave Hallo a smirk before walking away. Hallo could do nothing but watch him walk off. She took a glance down at her hand to see a thin layer of frost that had been left there from Jack's chilly kiss. "Maybe this baby sitting thing won't be so bad after all," Hallo thought to herself in a bit of amusement.

(Author's Note: Hope that wasn't too painful. Mmm, case you didn't get it Hallo is pronounced Hollow, basically. *shrugs*)
