"We have to get out of here!" Tooth cried, struggling in the swirling waters. She had to shout as over the strong winds, she could not even hear herself.

"Jack! Jack! I'm the one who gave you this power – let me out… Let me out!" Pitch yelled, stretching his hands out to the boy in the black hoodie standing above the raging waters. Jack looked down at Pitch, his scarlet eyes narrowing. For a moment, Pitch thought that he had won – Jack would pull him up and save him. But Jack smiled.

"Jack!" North cried, as he gasped, bursting forth from the violent waters. He was buffeted by the wind, but the burly man was close to Jack. North reached up, and grasped Jack's ankle. "Jack Frost!" North gasped, his blue eyes fixed on Jack. Jack turned from Pitch and looked down at his fellow Guardian. His smile had disappeared again, and his red eyes narrowed.

"Jack!" Tooth cried, as she managed to swim up to North, and grasped the fur on North's clothes. She felt someone grab onto the fur as well, and saw Bunnymund with Sandy. Sandy was grasping onto Bunny's ears. "Ow! Frostbite!" Bunny yelled up at Jack. Jack glared at all of them, but he seemed to be hesitating. Then he raised his staff, and brought it down with some force. A wave of air knocked everyone away from him from the center of the lake, including Pitch, and they all spun onto dry land as the whirlwind died down around Jack.

"Oooh…" North held his head as he got up, looking around to see if everyone's alright. "Everyone alright there?!" He yelled out, and saw with relief to see Bunnymund, Sandy and Tooth shaking their heads stunned. Pitch stood up nearby too, stunned as well.

North then turned to look at Jack, who stood in the middle of the lake. The ice layer over the lake was smashed, but where Jack stood, new ice was already forming, allowing him to stand upon it. "Oh…" North muttered, as he saw Jack staring straight at them, his scarlet eyes glowing. Then Jack leapt up, and the wind took him up into the skies and over the trees, disappearing from sight.

North stood there for a moment, his mouth slightly open, before he turned to glare at Pitch. "…Boogeyman…!" North billowed, his beard fluffing up in his anger, his cheeks turning its signature red.

"Uh?" Pitch dusted his black robe off, and stared as North approached him. Pitch stepped back, his eye twitching in fear. "Ah, uh, nice to see you again, North," Pitch said, his voice shaking slightly. North loomed over Pitch, and grabbed him by the collar. "You're coming with us, you nasty gunk," North growled, and dragged Pitch towards Bunnymund, Sandy and Tooth.

"…North, what in the world are you doing? We haven't got time for this, mate!" Bunnymund exclaimed, staring at Pitch in North's hands. "Jack Frost has gone mad! I think it'd be even worse than the blizzard of '68! Not just the children – the world is in danger!" Bunny hopped after North, who just walked past them towards his overturned sleigh.

"North, North, you heard what this kangaroo said," Pitch pleaded, gesturing towards Bunnymund. "We, need to stop Jack Frost! And I'm not of importance!

"I'm not a kangaroo, mate. I'm a bunny. The Easter Bunny," Bunnymund said, narrowing his eyes at Pitch and running his paw over his boomerang.

Tooth flew between them, and sighed, looking up at North. "Even though I don't want to admit it, North… but Pitch Black is right… or partially right. I mean, now Jack is a dangerous being! Who knows what he might do? We must save him! That is our priority right now!" Tooth curled her fingers into a fist. She looked down and thought about it for a moment, her wings fluttering quickly behind her. "I…I'm going to go look for him," Tooth said, her pink eyes showing her determination in finding her friend.

"Tooth! We have to ask Pitch what is going on about this first!" North shouted, waving his arm in the air while still holding onto Pitch. Pitch wobbled in his hand and shook his head, disorientated. "We need to know exactly what he did to Jack. Once we know the problem, we can treat it. We find way to treat Jack Frost. We don't mess around with dangerous thing. We do that, we get Jack back easy!" North gestured, his blue eyes brightening to show that he thought that that was a good idea.

"Uhhh, I'm not quite sure I agree with you on that one, mate," Bunny said thoughtfully. "Because…"

Sandy floated up into the air, and gestured towards the town of Burgess, alarmed. The sand around him flowed in anxiety, his golden eyes wide. Bunny, North, Tooth and Pitch looked towards the town, and looked in horror as they saw hailstones raining down on the town in a shocking blizzard. It was coming towards them. The wind around the lake was picking up.

"… Okay, I change my mind," North said, and then raised Pitch towards Sandy. "Sandy, tie him up, nice and tight,"

"Jamie! Get inside!"

Jamie, a sixteen year old boy, looked up to the skies , his brown hair framing his round face. His brown eyes were large as he stared at the hailstones falling from the skies. "I'm coming, mom!" He said, and ran through the door to his house, closing it behind him. "Sophie's here?" He asked, and there was a small grunt of answer from upstairs. At least his sister was safe in the house already.

Jamie took off his coat and hung it on the coat stand before making his way up to his room. Closing his room door behind him, he winced at the loud clattering coming from his window. The hailstones were coming down hard, and the violent winds outside was making his windows rattle. Jamie sat on his bed, looking out of his window. It has been a few years since he had seen Jack Frost. Every year, snow day came early, much to his delight since he had already started school – and hated it. He always looked forward to snow day – it reminded him of Jack and how he had hugged him before they parted.

Just yesterday, the first snow fell, much to Jamie's delight, and he actually felt something cold nip at his nose. It was most likely Jack Frost conjuring up an icy cold but refreshing wind which caused his nose to tingle.

But… all of a sudden, it began to hail. What was going on? Was Jack angry? Or maybe Jack was not here to control the winter weather this year… but why? Winter in Burgess was always pleasant. It was the first time in history they ever had something like this.

Jamie got up and went over to the window, looking out of it. The hailstones crackled against the glass, and Jamie narrowed his eyes to see if he can spot Jack. "Jack Frost… if you can hear me… Please come, this is terrible," Jamie whispered, hoping that Jack would come again…

Crash!

Jamie gasped, and stumbled backwards. A pane had cracked on the left window – the same one which Jack Frost made a rabbit leap out of. Jamie stepped back, shocked by the impact in which the hailstone caused.

Then he saw it.

In the white blizzard of hail and ice… he saw a figure in the sky outside the window. White hair, and a black hoodie. Jamie's eyes widened. He saw what that figure was holding – a crooked staff. "Jack Frost…" Jamie whispered, and a smile of excitement spread onto his face. "He really came! Haha! He really c-" Jamie wanted to go forwards when he saw the figure fall towards the ground.

"Jack!" Jamie yelled, and he heard a loud crash downstairs. "Mom! What happened?!" Jamie yelled, running down the stairs at top speed, and saw his mother and sister standing in front of the door. His mother looked up at him, shaking her head.

"Don't come here, Jamie. Take your sister to the room," His mother said, grasping his arm and pulling him away from the door. Jamie glanced at her, and then at the door. "What's going on? What was that crash?" Jamie asked, confused and afraid. He just saw Jack Frost fall from the sky. Did something happen?

The doorknob rattled.

Jamie gasped, and his mother stared at the door, alarmed. "Stay back, Jamie," Mother said, as Jamie hugged his sister. "J-Jamie… what is that?" Sophie asked, her eyes wide.

"Help…"

"It's someone, mom!" Jamie cried. Could it be…? Jamie ran forward towards the door. "Jamie! What are you doing?!" Sophie cried, clinging onto her mother instead.

Jamie swung open the front door, and looked down at his doorstep.

A boy with brown hair, wearing a brown cape and brown, frayed trousers lay in front of his door. His cape was covered with ice and hail, and he was covering his head. "Help me…" The boy said weakly, and raised his head. Jamie stared down at him, shocked. This boy's clothes were strange. Even stranger was that… his face looked oddly familiar.

The boy with the brown hair fell forwards, and Jamie caught him, pulling him into his house and closing the door behind him. "Mom! Come and help me, I think he's hurt!" Jamie cried, looking back. His mother and sister had already rushed forward, and tried to help the boy up. "He seems very weak… and what strange clothes," His mother commented. Then swinging the mysterious boy's arms over his shoulder, Jamie helped him up the stairs to his room.

"What is your name?" Jamie asked, looking at the boy he was supporting. "What happened?"

"I…I fell…" The boy said weakly. Jamie noticed that he had brown eyes – just like himself. The boy sighed weakly, before raising his head to look at Jamie, looking confused. "My name…?" The boy whispered, and he paused again. Did he forget his own name? Then Jamie saw his eyes brightening slightly, before the boy turned to look at him again.

"My name… is Jack Overland…"
