Chapter 2- Kidnapped

A/N- Yes, I know, it's taken a while to update but I'm finally doing it and am actually kind of excited to write this, as usual, hope you enjoy and see you down at the bottom! Ps- Jack now calls Pitch dad regularly having been with him so long.

Back in Burgess. To be fair, they need their winter as well, it's just that...Pitch has been my dad for ten years now and in that time whenever I've had to come here he came with me, knowing how many bad memories I had and this is the first time I've come alone again and I can't help feeling that something's going to go wrong.

*Small time skip*

Well it's the end of the day and nothing has happened but I still can't help feeling uneasy. Wait, what was that?! I swear I heard something behind me...There it was again! I spun around and took off running, trying to get away from whatever it was that was chasing me and ending up in an alley, God I wish dad was here.

"Hello mate." Whipping around and clutching my staff tighter I saw who it was who'd been following me. Only The Bunny, phew I was terrified but I refused to let him see it.

"Been a long time, blizzard of '68 I believe. Easter Sunday, wasn't it?" He was never gonna let that go, was he? I was still kinda worried but instead of showing it I just smiled and leaned on my staff, "Bunny! You're not still mad about that, are you?" Everything's gonna be fine, dad'll come to help me, I just have to stall for time.

"Yes." Wow, shocking. "But this is about something else." Unexpectedly, there was a large hand on my shoulder and I was being lifted off the ground, "Hey! Put me down!" I was now inside a sack, feeling like I was about to have a heart attack and Bunny was definitely saying something but I just couldn't focus on the actual words. Breathe, I just have to breathe, in and out.

The sack opened and I was faced with...elves, not really what I was expecting. They moved aside and there were North, Tooth and...Sandy! At least one familiar face.

"There he is, Jack Frost!" North exclaimed, arms wide. "You've got to be kidding me..." I mumbled in return, although I don't think he heard me. Suddenly, there were more hands on me, "Hey, hey, whoa, put me down!" I had been alone for hundreds of years and hadn't had anyone touch me in a long time, dad was really the only one I felt comfortable touching.

"I hope the yeti's treated you well?" Was he being serious right now, really? "Oh yeah, I love being shoved in a sack and tossed through a magic portal," I was going for sarcastic and casual but all I really feel is worry and confusion. I was definitely also sweating a bit and just hoping the others didn't notice my anxiety.

"Good! That was my idea!" Of course it was. Right. I need to get out of here. Okay then, Plan A, stall for time until dad gets here, Plan B, well, I'll think one if it's needed. "Anyone want to tell me why I'm here? I must've done something really bad to get you four together. Am I on the naughty list?"

"Ha! On naughty list! You hold record!" Hold the record? How do I hold the record?! Sure, I'm not the most well behaved but I don't think I'm actually bad, I at least try to be nice.

"But no matter, we overlook, now we are wiping clean the slate!" Now that...that's suspicious. "How come?" It was actually Bunny who cut in with an answer, however unhelpful he actually was, "Ah, good question." Well yay for me and my questioning skills, now it's hopefully time for a real answer. "How come?! I tell you how come! Because now, you are Guardian!"

A whole lot of stuff is happening right now, banners falling from the ceiling, elves playing trumpets and drums, fire dancing yeti's, it's all too much! I slammed my staff down onto the floor and sent out a burst of frost and ice, making everyone in the room stop what they were doing.

"What makes you think I even want to be a Guardian?!" I yelled, completely stressed out. North started laughing and I genuinely wonder if he was actually being sincere or not, I think he is..."Of course you do! Music!" Everything started up again and I was getting seriously overwhelmed here.

"Oh North always with the performances so over the top." Dad! He's here! "Pitch!" "Dad!" The Guardians and I yelled at the same time. The Guardians had moved into fighting stances as I started running forward towards dad, hugging him when I got there. "Are you okay my son?" I could hear the pure concern, the fear in his voice and see it in his eyes.

"Jack! Get away from him!" North yelled. I let go of my dad and stood in front of him pointing my staff at the others. I know that if they have the chance they'll attack dad.

"Jack, what are you doing, Pitch is dangerous," Tooth said, quieter than when North had yelled, Bunny just glared and raised his boomerangs higher and Sandy, well Sandy knew about Pitch kind of adopting me so he happily waved at us and then moved to stand off to the side, keeping an eye on all of us.

All The Guardians started talking over each other trying to work out what to do until dad spoke again, "Really, all of you acting like children when the only actual child here is Jack." That is a fair point but still, I'm not that young.

"How'd you figure that then? He's over three hundred years old!" exclaimed Bunny and North and Tooth nodded in agreement, Sandy putting his head in his hands. I snorted and dad's kinda just staring at them...oh, here he goes.

"Jack is seventeen years old. It matters not how old he actually gets, he will always remain seventeen. He's an immortal child, like the ones you are sworn to protect but you seem to have conveniently forgotten about him." Dad's voice had grown angrier as he went on. He thought that the Guardians had failed to help me and I agreed with him.

The Guardians knew I was alone and not once in my three hundred years alone had any of them come to check up on me. Well except Bunny but that wasn't because he wanted to make sure I was okay just to threaten me after the whole 'Easter Ruining Blizzard' Incident.

"Come on Jack, we're going home." Dad smiled, wrapping an arm around my shoulders and we started to leave, "Wait! What do you mean, home? You can't take Jack!" North called after us and I turned around, saying, "Dad found me in Burgess ten years ago and sort of adopted me, not like anyone else was around and we liked each other right away, Sandy probably would have told you if you paid more attention to him. Anyway, it's time for us to go."

I whistled loudly and our oldest NightStorm came cantering through the skylight, before the Guardians could say anything we were already gone.

A/N- Yep, this chapter was a little longer than the other but I hope you liked it, I had fun writing it, till next time! :)
