Jack Frost was sitting in North's workshop, in the Globe Room, and just stared at the globe itself. It's been 2 years since the battle with the Boogeyman himself, Pitch Black, and it's been 2 years since Jack Frost became the Guardian of Fun. Everyone needs a little bit of fun every now and then, including Jack. But lately, he had been acting weird, like he was still lonely. He still had Jamie Bennett and his friends still believing in him, but he was feeling sad lately. He wasn't acting like his normal fun self.

"Jack, what's wrong? You have been down in the dumps lately." North asked the young spirit as he walked into the Globe Room.

Jack looked at the older guardian and sighed sadly. "It's nothing, North." He said as he looked up at the moon. That was when he got the feeling inside of him, that there was going to be trouble real soon.

"Call the other guardians...Manny has something to say." Jack said to North. North didn't know what it was that the Man in the Moon wanted to say, but he knew that if Manny was telling Jack to get the other guardians, then it had to be serious.

He pulled the lever to activate the Northern Lights and within minutes (more like seconds), Bunny, Tooth, and Sandie arrived in their own personal ways.

"So, what's the call for, mate?" Bunny asked with his Australian accent.

"Jack says Manny has something important to say." North replied, making everyone look at the not so fun Jack.

"Manny...?" Jack looked up at the moon again, as a beam of moonlight hit the floor, making a silhouette of a girl on the floor.

"Who the bloody heck is that?!" Bunny yelled.

"Akuma...Manny told me. She's the new enemy we have to defeat." Jack responded.

"Wow. Manny has never spoken through one of us before." Tooth said, as her little fairies tweeted like little birds.

The silhouette disappeared and then the Guardian Crystal slowly rose from the ground, making Jack's eyes grow wide. "He didn't tell me this part." Jack said under his breathe.

The crystal showed a girl with long hair, almost going passed her butt, and wearing normal human clothes, with a bow in the back of her head.

"Solana Song?" North asked, mainly to Manny. "Why, she's not even spirit!"

"Who's Solana Song?" Jack asked as he got up off the chair and walked towards the crystal in the center of the room.

"She's the nicest girl I have ever known." North began. "She was always on Nice list, never naughty...unlike a certain Winter Spirit." Jack chuckled a bit, with his smile returning. Tooth liked seeing him smile, never frown. This was the first time in forever since he became a guardian that he smiled in their presence.

"Why is Manny choosing her to be...?" Bunny began, before the image of Solana changed to look like a hero of the moon, showing color for the first time.

She was now wearing a white crop-top fuku with blue short sleeves, with a red sailor collar on her back that had a blue stripe on it, and a blue bow on her chest, with a white crescent moon in the center of said bow, red high-heeled shoes with a red band around both ankles, white gloves that stopped at the elbows with blue cuffs on them by the elbows, and a red mini-skirt with a blue line at the bottom of said skirt. Her hair was snow blond, with a red bow on the back of her head. A blue mask was on her face, just for the eyes, and a white crescent moon was on her forehead. Around her neck was a red chocker necklace.

Jack looked closely at the image now, and saw that she was also holding a crescent moon wand in her hand, that had the blade of a sword in the middle of the U shaped crescent moon.

"Half-spirit, half-human...the first one." North said as the crystal started lowering again.

"She'd be a half-breed?" Jack asked.

"Yeah...she will." Tooth said as she touched North's shoulder. "Or maybe she already is."

"Jack..." A female voice spoke to him, calling the attention of everyone there. Jack turned around as a moonbeam shined on the floor. A bunch of stars swirled around in a circle, going faster and faster until they disappeared, leaving a lady with almost to the floor long wavy white hair, a blue bow on the back of her head, ice blue eyes, and milky pale skin in it's place. Her outfit was a beautiful strapless white gown, that was kind of form-fitting, with a blue bow in the front, and a crescent moon in the center of said bow. And on her forehead was a white crescent moon.

She looked at Jack and walked towards him as the moonbeam faded away. "Jack Frost, it's quite nice to finally meet you." The girl said.

"I would say likewise, but I don't know you." Jack replied, making the girl giggle a little. She giggled like a little girl, but it made Jack smile.

"I'm sorry. It's just that Manny can't stop talking about you, that it feels like I already know you. I'm Queen Selena of the Moon." The girl curtsied like a queen would, and Jack's smile turned into a shocked expression.

"Oh, I didn't know you were a queen."

"That's quite alright. I actually came here not to chit-chat, but to give you something." Selena handed Jack a wristband that had a curved snowflake on it. Jack looked at his fellow guardians before taking it into his hand.

"Why?" He asked as he looked it over.

"Solana Song is going to be the next guardian, and the first half-spirit, so I figured...there should be more than one." Selena responded, making North's eyes widen.

"Queen Selena, you're not saying that..."

"Yes, I am. Jack Frost...you are being called to be Jackson Overland once again."

Jack looked at Selena with eyes wide. That was his human name when he was alive. He was going to have it again. He wondered how, until he looked at the wristband with the snowflake. He hesitated for a while, until he put it on his left wrist, and clasped it together. "What was it supposed to do?" He asked, not noticing the shocked expressions on everyones faces. Well, everyone but Queen Selena.

"This." Queen Selena made a mirror appear with her magic and showed Jack his reflection. And once Jack saw his reflection, his eyes nearly popped out of his head. His brown hair was back, but his blue eyes stayed. His skin even looked tanner, not pale.

"Huh?!" Jack just kept staring at his reflection, not being able to comprehend what had just happened. "I'm..."

"You can be human again." Selena said, with a grin as she handed him the mirror. Jack took it with a tan hand and just stared.

"Why did you do that?!" North yelled. "If he's..."

"He's half-human now, North. Relax." Selena said. "And besides, Jack is around the same age as your next guardian, and Akuma is most likely going to be targetting her! So I figured he could go down there as a student at Burgess High School, so he can protect my daughter!"

Jack looked up from the mirror and looked at Selena. "Solana's, your daughter?"

Selena looked at Jack, and grinned. "Yes...she is. But, she thinks that I'm dead."

"What about her father? Isn't he taking care of her?" Tooth asked.

"No." North interjected. "He died in car crash when Solana was 9."

"They don't call you Santa for nothing." Selena said with a smirk as she crossed her arms over her chest. "That's right. So she's been living in an orphanage her whole life so far." Selena said with her smirk disappearing and her arms drooping back down to her sides.

Jack saw the sad look in Selena's eyes, and sighed, before handing her back the mirror. Selena took it and made it disappear, before Jack said: "I promise, I'll do whatever I can to protect Solana." Selena looked up at Jack and smiled.

"Thank you, Jack." Selena said. "Well, then let's get to Burgess. I have a house down there that you can stay in." Selena said with a cute smile on her face.

Jack smiled at her smile, and said: "Sure. But I'm 17. Don't you think I need a parent?"

"I got that covered." Selena said before winking at him. "Let's go, Jackson Overland."

Akuma sat in her chair in her room, staring into her magic mirror (apparently I love magic mirrors) and saw Solana Song hanging out with some friends from school.

"So, you're the next guardian that the Man in Moon chose. But you're a human...not a spirit." Akuma stood up from her chair and walked closer to the mirror. She looked closer at Solana, and then gasped. "No...you-you cannot be!"

"What's wrong, m'lady?" One Akuma's minions asked as she ran in. She had short black hair, and red eyes. She always seemed to wear dresses, but she always had jeans on underneath.

"Solana Song has been chosen by Man in Moon." Akuma answered.

"She's the next guardian? But she's not even a spirit!"

"That's where you are wrong, Zola." Akuma looked at her assistant known as Zola, as her mirror showed their reflection now. "She is a half-spirit."

"How-how is that possible?" Zola asked.

"Simple...her father was a human, and her mother was a spirit who lived on the moon." Akuma answered, as she walked back to her sit and sat down. "I have an assignment for you, Zola."

"Yes, Akuma?"

"I want you to go to Burgess, as a human girl, and try to find a way to destroy that guardian of the moon." Zola's eyes widen as she slowly took out her black wristband with a black crescent moon on it.

"I'll do my best." Zola put the wristband on her left wrist, and turned into a human instantly and then disappeared.

Akuma looked back at her mirror and saw Solana walking down the sidewalk, and grinned evilly. "Be prepared, Guardian of the Moon...your world is about to change."
