Darkness..

That was all Jackson Overland new at that moment-that and someone screaming his name in pure agony. But nothing mattered anymore, he only felt cold..cold and fear.

Jack sunk further down into the icy waters that could suck the life out of him. His vision blurred, and his eyelids slowly grew heavier in the passing moments.

Then he closed his eyes, the life was leaving this poor fifteen year old.

The last thing he remembered was his sister-the one he had so selflessly given his life for, and would have done it many times over-screaming his name, trying to bring him back, but the ice had already frozen over.

He waited for death to come, to claim him and set his spirit free, in the dread of the situation, he felt a dark presence loom over him, but disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.

Jack closed his hazel eyes, letting the cold overtake him. But instead of feeling death, and coldness, he felt..life, and a strange, comforting warmth, and opened cobalt eyes.

His warm muddy brown hair slowly turned all white, and his skin paled. His memories erased.

Jackson Overland was no more.

Jack Frost took his place.

Jack rose in the water, an invisible force pulling him up. When Jack reached the edge of the ice, the force kept pulling him up, and the ice that had frozen over immediately broke, and he floated into the air.

The night was crisp, and clear, a full moon hung in the dark sky, surrounded by millions of stars.

Jack felt a warmth under the moon, and he just stared at it for a few moments before the force lowered him to the ground.

When his feet touched the ground, he was barefoot, and on ice. Jack looked around, and saw a staff of sorts with a shepherds crook on the head. He felt strangely compelled to the wooden staff. Jack tapped it lightly with his pale foot, and frost immediately covered the staff, there was a faint blue glow to it.

Jack knelt down, and put his hand around the staff, picking it up with ease. He laughed, and touched the ice with the staff;frost patterns from the staff completely covered the ice, and started to the tree's, frosting them, and jumping from branch to branch like the child he was.

Though, not all was as it should be, there was a dark presence around Jack, like something-or someone-was watching him, but Jack paid no attention to it and shrugged it off.

An invisible force suddenly pulled Jack into the air, he laughed and concluded that the force must be Wind. Jack asked Wind to fly him up, and it faithfully followed, flying him into the air and towards a small town.

There were small wooden houses in the village, and fires crackling outside with adults and children around it, trying to keep warm.

"Morning!" Jack waved to a few people, but they ignored him. He though strange of it, but shrugged it off.

He saw a few kids running around, playing with each other, "Hey kiddo's! Can you tell me where I-" but the kids ran straight through him cutting him off.

Jack gasped, and hugged himself in shock, it felt like there was an emptiness within himself.

He ran back to his pond, and curled into a ball, silently crying, his tears turning to ice tears as they dripped down his face.

There was the dark presence again, except this time, it felt closer. Jack looked up and wiped the tears from his eyes. Towering above him, was a man with spiky black hair, eclipse eyes, grey-ish skin, and a cloak of shadows.

"W-who are you?" Jack asked the man who was just staring at him from above.

The man smirked slightly, "I am the living presence of fear, I am the bump in the night, the monster under your bed, I am the Boogeyman, I am the Nightmare King, I am Pitch Black!" Pitch laughed maniacally.

Strangely enough, Jack wasn't scared at the least, he just smiled crookedly.

Pitch furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, "Aren't you afraid?"

Jack just shook his head innocently, and smiled slightly at Pitch, "Why should I be afraid?" Jack tilted his head slightly, and stood up nonchalantly.

Pitch clenched his teeth, and stepped forward, driving Jack backwards until he was backed up to a tree.

"So, you think you're not afraid, isn't that right, Jack?" Pitch was now nose-to-nose with Jack.

"H-how do you know m-my name?" Jack tried to back up on the tree even more, but his back was already as close as it could get.

"I know everything about you Jack, I was there when you died, and when you were reborn, I know all your fears," Pitch brought a hand up and pushed a lock of Jack's white hair away from his eyes.

Jack paled(even more than usual)and tried to put his staff in between Pitch and him, but the Nightmare king pulled it from his grasp and threw it aside.

Jack was freaked out from this shadow of a man, "Get away," Jack strained to speak.

"You know, my fearlings would have a fun time turning you," Pitch smirked, "Let's see how that blasted Manny likes me turning his own son into my Nightmare Prince," Pitch murmured thoughtfully.

"W-what are you talking about? I-I don't have any f-family.." Jack started to clench the tree with his fists, he had to get away from this weirdo.

"Oh, so him and my daughter never told you..pity.." Pitch rolled his eyes, but backed up a bit when he saw moonbeams coming onto Jack.

"He was meant for me! You left him alone, so did Seraphina, and now he's mine!" Pitch growled, more to the moon than anyone else.

"I don't care if he is light, and I am darkness, he belongs with me!" Pitch snarled, and turned back to Jack who was slowly making his way back to his staff.

Pitch tried to get closer, but the moonbeams attached themselves to Jack, making his skin glow like moonlight.

"I'll be back for what's mine, you can't protect him forever MiM, so don't try to!" Pitch hissed, and disappeared into the shadows.

The moonbeams detached from Jack, and beckoned him towards the woods, so he followed without a second thought.

They led him to a section of the snowy woods, where a woman stood. Her long raven colored hair swept down to the floor, and her long elegant green dress was like grass all sewn together. She was painting the pine tree leaves when she turned to Jack, grey eyes twinkling in the moonlight.

"Hello Jack," the woman of nature's voice was gentle. Jack felt at peace in her presence, like he already knew who she was.

"Who are you?" Jack whispered, eyes wide.

"I am Mother Nature, I protect this earth, and keep it in balance, but to you," her laugh sounded like wind, "I am your mother of sorts."

Jack's eyes widened even more, "You, you're my mother?"

Mother Nature smiled, "Yes, and I apologize for not being there when you were reborn, but I am here now.." she kneeled down to Jack, and held out her hand.

Jack timidly grabbed it, even though he had just become a spirit less than two hours ago, and remembered nothing, he felt like he could trust this woman.

"Thank you mom," Jack embraced her, and she hugged back, happy that the winter spirit accepted her as a mother.

"Umm, can I ask you something?" Jack looked at his bare feet.

"Of course, anything."

"Earlier..there was a man who called himself Pitch, and he approached me.." Jack paused, and looked at him mom, her face had grown dark and stormy.

"Please continue.." she mumbled.

"Well..he was backing me up to a tree..and kinda kicked my staff away..then talked about fearlings whatever those were, and, and talked about turning me, and then some stuff about nightmares.."

"Then, he sorta started talking to like..the moon or something, and said stuff about me..belonging to him," Jack trailed off, and stared at his feet uneasily. Pitch didn't really scare him, he was just really freaked out at him.

Mother Nature growled menacingly, and the weather dropped about twenty degrees, but that didn't bother Jack, him being a winter spirit and all.

"How dare he threaten my son!"

Jack backed away from Mother Nature, it looked like she was going to do something rash.

"It's bad enough he's the boys grandfather! Can't you do something so that Pitch knows that Jackson is off limits!" Mother Nature yelled to the moon.

"Well..I don't what you're really talking about..but, if you're talking to the moon..he did send like, moon things on me that made Pitch go away.." Jack spoke timidly.

Mother turned towards Jack, all her fury in her eyes made Jack flinch away, and his mother's gaze immediately softened. She brought Jack into her arms, and stroked his head, "Did he scare you, Jack?" she asked softly.

"Not really, he just kinda freaked me out, he was a real weirdo," Jack smirked, and laughed.

"That's right, there's nothing to be afraid of, and if he ever tries to hurt you again, I'll protect you,"

"Okay," Jack smiled, and flew into the air with ease, doing a few air-somersaults.

"Looks like Wind found herself a new friend," Mother Nature laughed, and the leaves ruffled as Wind flew by it.

"Come, I will show you my home," she paused and laughed quietly, "And you can stay if you would like."

"Really!" Jack jumped around excitedly.

"Really, really," her eyes turned stormy, "And if Pitch ever bothers you again, tell me and I will make sure he never lays a finger on you again," Mother Nature put a hand on Jack's shoulder, and whisked them away to the Amazon forest, one of the many homes of Mother Nature.
