Sorry guys it has taken so long for a update! I got busy with a few things but here I am, back to give you a dashing love chapter between our two star men. Please enjoy and as always review! And also, I tried my best with trying to get North to talk the way he usually does in the dialogue, if I messed up then sorry fellow ROTG fans! Plus I don't any rights to ROTG or any of it's characters. If only!
Jack could feel the bitter cold wind brush against his skin as he flew to North's hideout. Clouds drifted above him as he looked down to see the icy landscape, glistening in the early morning sun. In the near distance Jack could hear the calls of penguins. Moments later Jack saw it in the distance, North's palace. Flying past many of the ice mountains, he could see North's office window coming into view as he slowed down and came up to it. Looking inside, Jack could see North hovering over his workshop, tinkering with toys and ice. Tapping slightly on the window with his staff, Jack watched as North turned his head and watched as his face lit up with his normal jolly self.
"Ah Jack, what are you doing here?" North said, opening the window as Jack floated in and finally drifted to the floor.
"Well, it's about Jamie. I think something may be wrong and I think Pitch may be in on it." Jack said, turning to look North in the face, which was now filled with grim worry.
"What is wrong?" North said, walking to his chair and sitting down, eyes still trained on Jack.
"Well...he has been having these nightmares lately. I saw him yesterday and he looked pretty shaken up as he told me. He said he had dreams where he was walking through a snowy forest alone till he came to a frozen lake and walked onto it, only to feel this searing pain in his back and then fall into the water. He said he didn't know what it meant, but all I know is that he's terrified of this nightmare and its been reoccurring quite often!" Jack said, leaning into his staff to catch a breath after the long explanation. "Heh, sorry should probably learn to breathe when explaining things." Jack said, turning to look at North once more.
North's eyes were void of all happiness now, almost filled with terror and fear. "This is not good...Jack, did Jamie tell you anything more about this dream?" North said, getting up and walking over to his bookshelf, scanning the books for a certain title.
"Well, that's really all he told me. Why...what's wrong North?" Jack said, taking a step forward, only to see a pale faced North scanning through a giant book marked "Supernatural Forces & Effects"
"Jack...I...if I'm not mistaken, I fear we may be dealing with something not of the mortal realm...more powerful than Pitch even." North said, turning to Jack who only had a confused look upon his face.
"North...w-what are you saying?" Jack said, a deep fear now growing inside his heart.
North began to walk back to his desk as he sat the book down, opened to a specific page as he turned to let Jack see.
"When the Guardians were formed hundreds of years ago, we not only stopped Pitch but countless other dark beings that Man in Moon had created for a once good purpose. But their was this one being, more deadly than anything we had come across, "Mavaro Thanato." North said, pointing to a picture in the book.
Jack slowly stepped forward as he gazed down at what had to be the most hideous thing he had ever seen. A cloudy figure surrounded by the decomposed eyes of many dead souls, with deep glowing red orbs where its eyes should be.
"North...what is that!" Jack said, making a disgusted face as he looked back up at North, who was now looking out into the ice landscape outside the window.
"Something very dark...something made of nothing but pure evil and hatred. In English it's name means Black Death. The creature...entity as some say, finds suspecting victim. Usually who holds great sadness or longing in heart, and once it finds victim it invades their minds. It not only gives people nightmares, but controls them, doing whatever it pleases to horrify and scare the person. But that's not what we worried about, once it had caused the person enough fear and terror...it would make the persons nightmare come true, killing or maiming them to suck out the life force inside, only quitting till it had its fill. We weren't able to destroy it completely but with held of Sandy's dreamsand we were able to severely cut off its life dependency. It had disappeared and we all thought maybe it had died off on its own, without having people to drain or scare...but now I fear it has come back. If Jamie is truly having this kind of reoccurring nightmare, then we must act quickly, before we are too late!" North said, turning and taking off through the door.
"Wait! Where are you going!?" Jack said as he ran to the doorway, causing North to turn and face him.
"Signaling the Guardians! Jack, if this real then I need you to go get Jamie and bring him here, to the pole! It isn't safe out there anymore, if Black Death has come back, then it can strike at any moment if it feels the victim is frightened enough!" North said, taking a few steps in Jack's direction.
"But what about his parents? And his sister? They will notice him being gone for so long, what do we do about that?" Jack asked, all of this new information beginning to run rampant in his mind as he tried processing it all. He had come here in the hopes that Jamie was just having nightmares and it would be something easily fixable, now he finds out that he may be in mortal danger.
"We will deal with that at later time, for now we focus on protecting Jamie!" North said, turning around and disappearing down the hall.
Jack turned and walked slowly to the window, a feeling of terror building up inside him.
'Jamie is the one person I've ever truly cared about this much...I-I can't let anything happen to him...not now, not ever!" Jack thought to himself as he shoot out of the open window and flew off into the cold evening air of the Artic.
"I'm coming for ya Jamie!"
