Disclaimer: I do not own ROTG. Only Bella

Bella decided that since it would be a while til Jack showed up, she would just hang out in her room. Tooth was busy directing her mini fairies to new teeth, North was making sure everything was in order for the new Guardian's arrival, and Bunny, of course, went to go bring Jack to the Pole. Sandy fell asleep in mid air.

Arriving at her room, Bella took out a book called Switched and plopped on her bed. She opened to where she left off. But she couldn't concentrate. All she could think about was that one boy. Jack Frost. What does he really look like? What can he do? Bunny had mentioned Jack before when Bella was younger, how he froze the ground and his eggs. And now he was a Guardian.

Bella sets down her book and walk to her drawer. Opening it up, she finds a small bronze box with a name on it: Bella. She opened the lid and found a necklace. The chain was silver and hanging from it were three leaves, two small ones on either side of a larger one. One was red, the other was orange, and the large one was yellow. North had told her that he made it for her. What Bella didn't know, was that North didn't make it. Instead he went back to the burnt cottage where Bella was found and dug through the wreckage for anything that survived. He found the necklace, the only thing that survived. She loved it but never got the chance to wear it.

Bella glanced at the mirror in front of her. She ran a hand through her hair, through her silver steaks, and sighed. They were usually that color because it was always winter here. When she goes to Bunny's Warren, they turn from silver to bright pink. Sometimes, when she goes to Tooth's Palace, when it's summer time, they would turn green. But she has never seen them in autumn.

Slowly, she puts the necklace around her neck and the leaves rest on her chest. A sudden wave of energy flows through her body and Bella watched in awe as her streaks turned a shade of red-orange and yellow for about a second, then returning to silver. Her eyes never changed, and neither did her clothes, but Bella felt like she had just transformed into a different season.


Bella's POV

A yell and a thud caught my attention. I shook her head and glanced at the door, just as it opened up, revealing some of Tooth's Mini Fairies. They chirped and motioned for me to follow. I raised an eyebrow, but shrugged and followed. They led me down toward the Globe Room, where I heard voices.

"Oh, yeah I love being shoved in a sack and tossed through a magic portal." A new voice. Is it Jack? Me and the fairies were getting closer but slowed as we listened.

"Oh good that was my idea," Dad's voice said. I rolled my eyes. Of course it was his idea. I continued to listen as Dad continued to speak.

"You know Bunny obviously," he continued.

"Obviously," the voice (Jack?) repeated.

"And the Tooth Fairy." I heard the flutter of wings as the Mini Fairies flew off to gather by Tooth. I rounded the corner and stopped as I listened to Tooth talking.

"Hello Jack (so it was Jack Frost!). I heard a lot about you...and your teeth!" she exclaimed.

"M-m-my what?" Jack asked.

"Open up! Are they really as white as they say? Yes! Oh and they really do sparkle like freshly fallen snow," Tooth exclaimed. I peeked around the corner and covered my mouth with my fist to keep me from giggling. Tooth was hovering too close to Jack, using her tiny hands to pry open his mouth to see his teeth, her Mini Fairies swarming around his face like little butterflies, trying to look inside his mouth.

"Girls, pull yourselves together. Let's not disgrace the uniform," Tooth scolded, flying back to Dad. He gestured to Sandy, who had fallen asleep.

"And Sandman," Dad said. When he saw Sandy was asleep he nudged him with his hand. "Sandy? Sandy! Wake up!" he said loudly. Sandy woke with a start and gave Jack a smile.

"Now where's the little sugarplum?" Dad asked. Tooth turned to her Mini Fairies and they chirped and squeaked. One of them, Baby Tooth, spotted me and quickly flew over to me. She then grabbed the end of my sleeve and tugged, making me stumble. But I followed her out from my 'hiding spot'. Dad smiled when he saw me.

"Ah, there you are," he said. I gave him a small smile and went to stand next to Tooth.

"Bella, this is Jack Frost. Jack Frost, this is my daughter, Bella Faith," North said, gesturing to each of us. I finally got to get a good look at this guy.

Jack was my age, maybe a year or two older, with windswept snow white hair, bright ice blue eyes, deathly pale skin, and a slender form. He wore a blue hoodie with frost designs around the collar and sleeves, light brown trousers that seem to be torn at his shins, and no shoes. In his hand was a wooden staff that hooked at the top. When he saw me, his eyes widened. I waved at him a little and gave him a small smile.

"S-she can see me?" he asked. I raised an eyebrow and looked up at Dad. He smiled down at me and then looked at Jack. He gave him a nod.

Jack glanced at the Guardians then his eyes found mine, staring deeply into mine. "But no one can see unless they're immortals," he said. His eyes showed hope.

"No, I'm 100% human. I've been raised by the Guardians for 16 years that it's impossible not to believe in others like you," I explained. Jack nodded once then turned to Guardians.


Jack's POV

When North mentioned 'little sugarplum', I thought Oh great, another one. Then one of Tooth's Mini Fairies darted from her spot and flew toward a column and came back out dragging...a girl. And not just any girl. A girl my age!

She stood between North and Tooth and gave North a small smile. Then North proceeded to tell me that her name was Bella Faith and she was his daughter! His daughter?! Since when did Santa have a daughter?! I looked over at the girl, Bella, and realized something crazy. She was a Mortal! And she was looking right into my eyes. I asked if she could see me and North nodded. Oh God, I think my heart just leaped out of my chest.

She was beautiful. He was almost as thin as me with almost equally pale skin, sapphire eyes, and dark brown hair with silver streaks that went to her waist. There were two thing that really got me suspicious: one was the crescent moon shaped birth mark on her collar bone that was clearly visible and two was the necklace around her neck. The chain was silver and had two small leaves, one red and the other orange, next to a larger golden leaf. When I looked back up, I saw that the tips of her silver streaks with red-orange.

All in all, I think I just got a crush. I mentally slapped myself. No bad Jack, bad, you can't be in love with a human! I looked at the Guardians and asked only one question: "Anyone want to tell me why I'm here?"

Cliff hanger! Okay so just to let you guys know, I have almost all eight stories posted and then we can get this contest started. I post a note in all my stories about how it works and it will also be on my profile. Later Mew Mews! ~Nya!
