Hello readers.
This story is a rewritten version of the previous story. Also don't expect this to be updated a lot just saying I'm quite busy irl.
Couple of things, I can't do accents so imagine them. Second Jack is/was 17 years old in this fic.
Kick back, relax and enjoy.
In the quiet town of Burgess, Sandy was delivering dreams while watching the cloudless sky. He observed the moon, which was glowing a lot brighter than normal, chasing all the darkness away. After finishing up his job, Sandy noticed something strange. One of his dreamland streams were going towards the forest. Seeing he is ahead of schedule, Sandy followed the spiralling gold stream into the forest. After a short flight through the trees, Sandy reached a familiar place.
Jack's pond. The setting was stunning. The area was lit up by the moon's beams creating a magical setting. The ice on the pond patterned with frost and reflecting the moonbeams onto the trees making everything seem to come alive. Turning away from the pond's winter beauty, Sandy glanced around to possibly spot their Guardian winter spirit, but to no avail, he was nowhere to be seen. Instead Sandy spots a bundle of clothes with dreamsand dancing on top.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an abandoned sleeping baby covered in a blanket that was patterned with faint new moons and gold stars. Suddenly, the environment's lighting around Sandy started to change colour forcing him to look up at the sky. The Aurora Borealis was stretched across the sky. That could only mean one thing. Guardian gathering. Picking up the child, Sandy summoned a sand plane and flew up to the North Pole, eyes never leaving the child.
On the journey, Sandy took a quick peek inside to view the child's face and determine how young he or she is. Turns out it's a boy with a tuff of dark brown hair and a face of pure innocence, though there also seems to be a bit of mischief there too.
'Come to think of it. This boy reminds me of Jack' Sandy thought while covering the child's face up.
At the Workshop things were as busy as ever. Yeti's are building, painting and testing toys out, never failing to make you stare in amazement. In the globe room, it was all silent apart from the occasional elf wandering by.
"What is taking Sandy and Jack so long?" Bunny said impatiently, thumping his foot down in a drum like rhythm.
"Chill Bunny, it has only been seven minutes. But I know this is important since Manny wants to speak with us," North said, gesturing to the moon above.
"Well it's easy to chill here mate. We are in the middle of a frozen wasteland," Bunny mumbled in a huff before going back near the fireplace. That's when Sandy appeared through a open window, holding something in his arms.
"Hey Sandy, what you got there?" Bunny piped up, successfully getting the other two Guardians attention on Sandy. Sandy explained through sand images that he found the child abandoned then the lights appeared having no time to find an home for him. Tooth was already on the go and flew over to coo over the child's single tooth.
"Aww look at that little tooth it's so white and it sparkles just like... Freshly fallen snow... Just like Jack," Tooth frowned at this then concern took over "Where is Jack anyway?"
"I'm afraid Jack can't be with us today," A voice; booming but soft and gentle at the same time; said, startling the four Guardians away from the child.
"Why not Manny? Did something happen to him?" North questioned snapping out of it first. Sandy, Tooth and Bunny nodded behind North, agreeing with him.
"Do you remember before Easter when Jack became a Guardian and he said 'When was the last time you guys actually hung out with kids?'" Manny asked, playing the last part in Jack's voice. Bunny almost pulled a face thinking back to that disastrous Easter but nodded like everyone apart from Sandy. Sandy thought that this was the time he was 'dead' but luckily for Jack, Sandy pulled Pitch with his whip before he hit Jack.
"I have turned Jack Frost into a human infant so you can have the opportunity to learn more about kids and maybe even bring you all closer. Your job is to raise him until he turns 17 years old. I have removed all memories and his powers are going to lay dormant until his 8th birthday." Manny said, giving what looked like a smile at the Guardians faces.
"Whoa whoa whoa wait a minute! Are you telling us to raise a kid! Where even is Jack?" Bunny exclaimed, putting his hands in front of him in surrender.
"I believe Sandman is holding him," Manny pointed out, the moonlight increasing on Sandy then disappearing from the sky. The last thing Manny had left them with was "I have faith this will go well but in the meantime... Good luck Guardians,"
The four main Guardians looked at Jack, then back at each other, all having the same thought in their head.
"What do we do now?"
Chapter 1 ends here.
