Chapter 2
Deep in an old forest in Burgess Pennsylvania, where no one had hardly been in for years, the ground began to shake. It then burst open and a big pink pod came out slowly. The pod slowly cracked then burst! and out came a young green woman with red hair. she called herself Poison Ivy. The woman looked at her hands and then at what was left of the pink pod.
"The dreams of my brother finally awoke me" she said as she then looked at the full moon shining above her and scowled.
"Not even you could keep me a prisoner forever, you know my plans will help this miserable planet along with all the meat bags who infest it!" she shouted then cleared her throat and smoothened down her hair.
"Now to see how many years I was out" stated Poison Ivy looking at the circles on the stump of the vine of the pink pod and then started to count.
"Hm, 298 years asleep and two years before that I became who I am now, so that means I can find my brother and together we'll save the world as brother and sister…"

Jack Frost was flying through the air with his best friend Jamie on his back, they were on their way to the location of their mission from the Man in the Moon, which was the woods behind Jamie's home town. It had been three months since the guardians had defeated Pitch Black, and Jamie had teamed up with them as the guardian's assistant to help the childhood legends keep peace between magical creatures and humans. But lately there had been reports of crazy planets wreaking havoc around chem labs and the Man and the Moon wanted Jack and Jamie to investigate.
"I still say we should've brought some weed killer on this mission" said Jamie holding onto Jack's shoulders tightly.
"Relax, kid my ice will kill those overgrown weeds!" stated Jack confidently. Jamie smiled and rolled his eyes.
"So what do you think the deal is with these crazy plants here?" asked Jamie.
"MIM didn't say who was behind this, plants are growing in an unnatural way as growing fast and moving out of control, and the person possibly behind all this is stealing stuff from human government labs" said Jack. Jamie squeaked in fear.
"What was that?" asked Jack.
"That was on the news, the lab break ins I mean, all the victims were found unconscious and when they woke up they said they couldn't remember who broke in" Jamie replied.
"They must have been drugged, whoever's behind this knows what their doing" said Jack.
The two besties landed in the woods three miles from Jamie's house, only to see it wasn't just a pine forest, it was a full on fast growing jungle that was reaching even farther out into the rest of the woods with many different exotic plants that would surely spread for miles.
"Jack…" Jamie trailed off getting behind the winter spirit.
"It's ok Mother Nature might've gone missing, but my ice will take down any weed that'll try and stop us!" said Jack determinedly griping at his staff. Jamie snickered at his best friend's overprotective nature. Jack was very protective of Jamie which was something the boy always admired, it was always nice to have your best friend as your guardian, but something lingered in Jamie's mind.
"Wait Mother Nature as in Pitch's daughter went missing?" asked the eight year old.
"Oh yeah, she's been missing for almost a week but no worries she goes off the grid all the time" said Jack trying to convince himself more than Jamie.
"So you mean Mother Nature didn't cause all this?" questioned the boy as Jack shook his head.
"Oh no, Mother nature is in charge of all nature accept winter and plants. Winter was given to me by the Man in the Moon which mother nature gladly gave up since she said she hated the cold. And Mother Nature herself gave the power of plants to some girl who wanted power who's also possibly behind all this" said Jack, freezing vines and other plants in front of him and Jamie to make a path to walk on.
"So you think that girl you mentioned is behind all this?" asked Jamie following Jack and ducking under branches and vines.
"It's our best beat" replied Jack "But we'll have to see when we find the person" he said as he froze a vine behind Jamie that tried to strangle the boy.
"We're close" stated Jack cautiously.
"How close are- Jamie started but stopped when he turned around to see some kind of giant pod, with something shocking inside.
"J" you might want to see this…" said Jamie with wide eyes. Jack went over to see the pod that Jamie was looking at… had Mother Nature frozen inside it! She was in a petrified state like as if she was attacked out of nowhere. Jack put a firm hand on Jamie's shoulder.
"I want you to get out of here, I'll meet you back at your house" Jack whispered while starting to nudge Jamie out of the woods but the boy gently pulled himself out of Jack's grip.
"No, I'm not letting you take this person down alone, I'm staying with you!" stated Jamie boldly, making Jack smile but then he looked concerned.
"Are you sure? you saw what happened to Mother Nature" prompted Jack.
"Please, it's not like whoever's behind this knows we're here" said Jamie when suddenly two vines grabbed Jack and Jamie tieing them up and holding them up in midair.
"You were saying?!"shouted Jack as his staff was snatched from him by another vine.
"Ok spoke too soon, I get it!" yelled Jamie as he and Jack spotted a another vine carrying a green woman with red hair towards them. Her eyes were glowing light green and stopped glowing when she stood up from her perch to get a closer look at her trespassers.
"You know it's rude to just waltz in the way you did" said the woman gently.
"Who are you and what've you done to Mother Nature?!" asked Jamie trying to get free to the vine. the woman looked at the little boy sternly.
"You know there are severe punishments for bursting into others business in some places, so I'd keep your mouth shut you little brat!" prompted the green woman making Jack frown.
"How dare she even thinks about talking to Jamie like that!" the winter spirit thought.
"Leave him alone or I'll freeze your face off! shouted Jack, he may not have had his staff but he could still freeze whatever he touched. the green girl straightened at that and looked at Jack very closely and squinted… then gasped.
"Jack? Jack Frost?" she asked covering her mouth.
"Yes…?" Jack responded confused.
"Oh my poppies! Forgive me for all this!" gasped the girl as she waved her hand and made the two vines holding Jack and Jamie put their captives down and hand Jack back his staff.
"Um, thank you…?" said Jack still confused. the two boys then noticed that the woman still had her hands on her mouth and now it looked like she had tears in her eyes.
"Are you ok?" asked Jack reaching out to the girl, who just hugged him.
"So do you know her or something?" Jamie mumbled to his friend.
"I don't know" Jack mouthed as Jamie cleared his throat.
"So how do you know Jack?" asked Jamie. The green woman stopped hugging Jack and looked at the winter spirit.
"Jack, don't you recognize me?" she asked as Jack shrugged.
"Should I?" he asked. The green woman looked down.
"No, I've changed a lot"
"So who are you?" asked Jack. The girl looked up.
"My name is Poison Ivy, but you know me as Pamela Isley Overland" she said. Jack froze.
"That was my sister's name… no it's not possible!" stated the winter spirit.
"She's your sister?!" asked Jamie with wide eyes.
"No she's not" Jack shot as he then turned to the green girl "Your just trying to mess with me!" he said pointing his staff at Pam who only giggled at Jack's approach.
"Ask anything you want about our human lives and I can answer it" she said. Jack lowered his staff a bit.
"Ok what was me and Pam's favorite game we played every day?" asked Jack.
"Hopscotch" replied Poison Ivy simply and happily as if she were reminded of the most joyful memory. Jack was taken aback by the answer but shook off the shock and asked another question.
"How did I die?" asked Jack. Poison Ivy cringed at that question.
"You drowned in the pond a few miles from here, it was after you saved me by pretending we were playing a game of hopscotch and you used the staff you're holding to fling me away from the cracking ice" said Poison Ivy pointing to Jack's staff. Jack himself raised his eyebrow.
"Ok final question, what was the biggest secret I told Pam that she promise to keep?" asked the winter boy. Poison Ivy snickered.
"The secret was that you still slept with your old stuffed husky named hunter" she said still snickering. Jack's eyes widened as he dropped his staff.
"Pammie?" he asked almost tearfully. Poison Ivy nodded and blushed a darker green.
"Hello, big brother" she said sweetly. Jamie was completely confused.
"Pammie? and you used to sleep with what?" the boy asked as Jack turned to look at him.
"That was my nickname for her, and hey you wouldn't tell!" said Jack who then blushed. Pam shrugged and gave a goofy smile.
"Oh I don't care, get in here sis!" Jack shouted as he hugged Poison Ivy with great strength.
"Whoa! who knew your skinny arms we're this strong!" said Pam breathlessly. After the siblings hugged Jack and Jamie had loads of questions for the green girl.
"So how and when did you get your powers, what's all this, and where were you for the last 300 years?!" asked Jack getting so excited that the tips of the surrounding plants started to freeze.
"Whoa, hey calm down before you kill my precious creatures" said Pam petting a nearby flower gently.
"She scares me a bit" Jamie thought to himself. Pam looked back at the two boys.
"So are you going to tell me what you've been doing lately?" asked Poison Ivy. Jack gave a small laugh.
"Where do I start?" he asked. Pam then looked at Jamie and smiled.
"How about telling me who your friend is"
"Oh, Pammie meet my best friend and first believer, Jamie" said Jack as Jamie gave a small wave, he still had mixed feelings about Jack's so called sister.
"Well nice to meet you Jamie" prompted Pam shaking Jamie's hand.
"Can you please tell us what happened to Mother Nature?" asked Jamie sternly. Jack was about to give Jamie a warning glare, when he was then reminded of their mission.
"Yeah, see Pam I'm afraid your plants are starting to scare people with their rapid growing, why are you stealing things from labs, and why'd you trap mother nature?" asked Jack. Pam then sighed and looked a the boys standing before her.
"You might want to sit down for this" she said as she made a giant leaf pick the three of them up. Pam and the two boys sat down as she told the story of how she became Poison Ivy and about her plan to so called "save the world". By the end of Pam's story of being asleep in the pink pod for 298 years and fighting mother nature, who gave her, her powers. Jack and Jamie were both shocked and confused.
"Pam what did you do to Mother Nature?" asked Jack almost disappointed.
"I simply captured her in a pod like the Man and the Moon did to me and I will do it to anyone who gets in our way" replied Pam.
"Our plan?" asked Jack.
"Yes, we can save the world together as brother and sister and once my calculations and the formula I took from the labs are ready, we'll spread the virus from the ocean to the world!" exclaimed Poison Ivy, leaving Jack stund.
"You want me to help you turn all life on the planet into plants?" asked the winter spirit. Pam smiled and nodded.
"Well will you work with your little sister to save the world?" asked Pam holding out her hand to Jack, who hesitated before taking it with both of his own hands giving his sister's a gentle squeeze.
"Pam, I can't be apart of this plan and neither should you. This isn't what'll help the planet" said Jack sadly. Pam's face feel; something snapped inside of her as she drew her hand away from Jack.
"Oh… I see, well if your not going to be part of the situation then you're obviously part of the problem" said Pam as the giant leaf they were all sitting on lowered to the ground.
"Um, what is she gonna do to us?" asked Jamie in a shaky voice as he held onto Jack's arm.
"Lets just say you'll be joining Mother Nature" Poison Ivy answered as she pulled up her arms making two giant weeds grow from the ground and zoom towards Jack and Jamie, trying to attack them.
"Jamie open the portal!" yelled Jack stopping the weeds with multiple ice attacks.
"What about Mother Nature?!" asked Jamie.
"There's no time we have to get out of here!" Jack shouted forming an ice cluster around himself and Jamie, but the winter spirit knew it wouldn't hold for long since Poison Ivy's trees were starting to beat on it. Jamie quickly took out the magical snow globe in his pocket.
"North Pole!" Jamie shouted as the snow globe then was smashed to the ground,turning into a swirl of colors with the globe room of the North pole in the middle.
"Go now!" yelled Jack pushing Jamie into the portal and then jumping in himself, and just when the ice cluster broke the portal closed.
Jack and Jamie then found themselves on the floor of the globe room with the other four guardians staring down at them.
"... So I take it you found the source of the strange plants?" asked Tooth with three of her fairies including Baby tooth flying next to her.
"How'd you guess?" questioned Jack sarcastically as he helped Jamie up.
"Well did you stop whoever was behind all of it?" asked North getting up from his chair. Jack looked down.
"Mate, what's wrong?" wondered Bunny as a question mark appeared above Sandy's head. Jamie looked at the guardians then at Jack with a sad expiration as he hugged his best friend.
"Jack, I'm so sorry, I can't even imagine how you must feel" said the eight year old. Jack smiled sadly and hugged Jamie back.
"Are you two ok, who's behind this?" asked Tooth fluttering her wings nervously. Jack finally looked up.
"You guys might want to sit down for this…"

The four guardians listened to what Jack a Jamie told them about how Jack's little sister Pam now known as Poison Ivy, got plant powers from Mother Nature, how she wanted Jack to join her on her insane mission to turn all life into plants, and finally how Jack refused and was almost put in a pod with Jamie to join Mother Nature. North, Tooth, Bunny, and Sandy were silent for a moment.
"I… I'm so sorry Jack, this must be so hard for you" said Tooth flying over and hugging Jack, who patted her on the back.
"So mate, how do we stop Poison Ivy?" asked Bunny putting his fist to his palm. Jack got up from his seat.
"We" don't stop Poison Ivy "I" stop Pam, my sister alone" he stated firmly.
"Wait what?!" questioned Jamie as North sighed and put his giant hand on Jack's shoulder.
"I know she's your sister and you want to stop her on your own, but we promised we'd fight together with things like this no matter what" said the guardian of wonder.
"Yeah, and maybe we can help her, after all her hearts in the right place, even though she does want to change the biology of all life on the planet" prompted Bunny, making the other guardians and Jamie give him a "really?" look.
"What?" asked Bunny as Sandy just shook his head.
"It's ok rabbit you not wrong maybe we can help her and I've got a plan to do so" said Jack.
"Really what?" wondered Jamie.
"Ok it's gonna sound crazy but I need you to trust me…"

Meanwhile back in Poison Ivy's jungle, the green woman herself was working on making the plant mutating virus using a giant leaf as a table.
"Ok a couple more steps and I should be done, and the world will be saved!" Pam said to herself as she mixed multiple chemicals into one beaker. Pam sighed to herself, thinking about Jack.
"One way or another dear brother you will see reason. This is the only way to help the planet" she sighed to herself.

Once back in Poison Ivy's jungle the guardians and Jamie prepared themselves for battle.
"Look out a trap!" Jack whisper yelled as he stayed behind the group. everyone stopped to see a big mess of weeds that seemed to be moving on its own.
"Good eye mate" stated Bunny twirling his boomerangs in his paws.
"Thanks, lets go this way" said Jack as the guardians and Jamie walked on a log over a swamp, and with one swift move Jack pushed North forward knocking everyone else but himself into the swamp.
"JACK!" yelled Jamie as he and the guardians recovered from the fall only to be captured by thick vines that held them up in front of a monster tree with a hungry mouth.
"What. Are. You. Doing?" asked North breathless from the vines tight grip.
"Just what you should've expected me to do, sucker cause it's Thursday" said Jack who then winked at his caught friends who winked back. That's when Pam came out from behind a few trees after seeing what Jack did.
"Jack!" she exclaimed cautiously as she neared her brother.
"Hi ya sis! Look sorry about before I had to make these jerks think I was on their side, so I could bring them here rap them up for you so you could get on with your plan nice huh?" prompted Jack. Pam looked at him in disbelief. Jack took a breath and then started talking fast.
"Pammie, little sis you've gotta give up this plan it's really nuts, there's gotta be another way your messing with stuff man was never meant to know about, I'm sure I can put in a good word for you after all your hearts in the right place, even if you did break into those human government labs, but please give up your plan Pammie, little sissy please give up your plan!" Jack begged. Pam backed up one step in shock realizing Jack had only captured his friends so that he could talk to her.
"What no Jack, the earth is dying I'm not destroying it I'm saving it, saving it from the men poisoning it but we can change them, shape them, trim them like a good gardner I don't want to do it I have to do it" said Pam with a frown. Jack sighed.
"Well you can't blame a guy for trying" and with that the ice spirit tossed a white pelit into the monster tree's mouth, killing it, making it let go of the guardians and Jamie.
"Concentrated weed killer, figured we'd need it for a fight with you" Jack commented looking at his friends with a smile. Pam pulled her brother forward by the hoodie.
"I thought you were my brother but your nothing more than a trader!" Pam shouted. Jack shuttered at his sister's words.
"Well brothers don't let their sisters kill 7 billion people, I'm sorry… now!" yelled the winter spirit as North took hold of Pam's arms as Tooth sprayed weed killer on the green girl's face knocking her out instantly. Jack sunk to his knees holding his unconscious sister close.
"I'm sorry!" he exclaimed almost in tears. Jamie put his hand on Jack's shoulder.
"You did what you had to do" said the boy.
"He's right, not many had the strength to do what you just did" said Tooth in a comforting voice. Bunny and Sandy then came out from behind the trees with all of Poison Ivy's formulas and supplies that she was using to create the plant virus.
"Hey, Mates found the virus she was gonna us to turn us all into veggie people, looks like she wasn't finished yet" said Bunny holding up the main beaker filled with bright green liquid.
"That's not important, if anything in her virus is wrong even the smallest thing…" North stopped letting the other's catch on.
"...We could be looking at the extinction of all life on the planet" Jack finished, still cradling Pam. Sandy nodded.
"We'll put her in the most sucur magic proof cell in the dungeon of the North Pole, and we'll make sure it's comfortable, we're going to help her Jack, I promise" said North as he patted Jack on the back.

After pam had been put in the North Pole's dugen in the most well power proof and guarded cell, the guardians and Jamie met in the globe room to discuss the fate of Jack's sister.
"Maybe we should give her a few months in that cell and then arrange a trial and see what happens?" offered Tooth two out of the of her fairies agreed and nodded while Baby tooth shook her head.
"I say keep her there forever!" prompted Bunny.
"Well that's a little harsh" said Jamie as North nodded.
"agreed and she's Jack's sister, maybe we can try again with talking sense into her" replied the guardian of wonder. Sandy frowned and made signals that suggested that Jack should talk to Pam.
"Your right Sandy Jack should try again with Poison Ivy, after all they are siblings" said Tooth. Everyone then looked at Jack with hopeful expressions. The winter boy was in the corner of the room leaning against the wall with his arms folded.
"Jack their right, you might be Pam's last hope" stated Jamie making Jack sigh.
"I don't want anything to do with Poison Ivy" he prompted bitterly. The rest of the group was taken aback.
"Jack you can't mean that she'd your sister- Tooth started but Jack snapped at her.
"No my sister died when she made a deal with Mother Nature, and what's in that cell beneath our feet is what's left of the little girl who's the cause of what I became to this day!" Jack yelled. Everyone stared at him in shock. The winter spirit sighed sadly and left the room.
"I feel bad for the kid, after all this time finding out he still has family out there" said Bunny glumly.
"Yeah, poor Jack" Tooth replied as Jamie then stood up.
"I'll go talk to him" the boy said as he left the room to find Jack with his hood up sitting by the window and staring out of it.
"Hey" Jamie started as he sat with his best friend.
"Hey" Jack echoed not even looking at Jamie who then cleared his throat.
"So what are you gonna say to Pam when- the boy started But stopped when Jack put his hand up.
"I'm not talking to her I told you" said the ice spirit.
"I know you don't feel like it but you might be the only person Pam will talk to and if we're going to help her, that'll probably be what it'll come to" said Jamie.
"I don't want anything to do with that green skinned witch!" Jack snapped. Jamie sighed.
"I understand your mad and disappointed in Pam but she's still your sister. I'm telling you this as a fellow older brother, little sisters can really get on your nerves but like I said there still your sister and you always give them more chances" said Jamie as Jack looked up a him and gave the smallest of smiles.
The other guardians suddenly came into the room.
"Jack, phil told us that Pam woke up- North started but stopped when Jack held up his hand.
"I told you I don't want to talk to her" said Jack firmly. The others looked at him nervously.
"That's the thing Mate, she says she'll only talk to you" said Bunny. Jack sighed in defeat as he made his way down to to the dungeon.
