Chapter 3: A Spark

Vida

"There she is! Our little Valentine." North greeted his friend as she flew in from the window and landed in front of him.

"North! I've missed you!" Vida ran up and hugged him. Aside from her real father, North was another father figure she could look up to. He took her in when she had nowhere else to go, she spent her earliest years as a goddess with him. "But I'm 317 years old, I haven't been little in a long time."

"Ah, but compared to me, you still little girl." North ruffled her hair, making Vida laugh and fix her hair.

"Vida!"She was then tackled into a large hug and flown around happily by Toothiana and her mini-fairies.

"Hiya Tooth! It's good to see you! And I missed you too ladies." Behind Tooth was Vida's favorite dream man, who was jumping around excitedly and creating happy faces and hearts over his head.

"I think I missed you the most Sandy!" She gave him a bug hug and giggled as some dream sand circled around them.

"Wait...where's Bunny?" She said looking around for her furry friend.

"He's retrieving our other guest, Jack Frost." Vida's eyes widened in surprise. She'd heard that name many times before, but she never did get to meet the winter spirit. Everything she heard was either good or bad. Bunny told her that he was trouble and only cared about himself. Nevertheless, Vida was curious to make that judgment for herself. Tooth told her that she'd heard he was very good looking with a beautiful bright smile. But who knew if that was true; Tooth was into teeth like that.

"Jack Frost? Why do you have to get him? Why did you even send Baby Tooth to get me?" Vida asked them.

"I'll tell you why! Little Valentine, you...are now Guardian!" The elves began playing music, and North marched along with them. Vida was stunned. She was a guardian? Since when? How? More questions began running thought her head as the annoyingly loud music played.

"Wait wait wait hold on!" She said loudly. The music stopped with a halt. "I'm...a Guardian?"

"Yes! You were chosen, by your father little one." That made Vida angry. She just asked her father for plans for her future and he said nothing. But he talked to the Guardians?

"He talked to you?" She looked up at her father in the night sky. "So I ask you to tell me why I'm here and you say nothing. They don't even ask and you talk to them and make me a Guardian? How is that fair?"

The Guardians watched the goddess as her face of anger faded down to a mix of frustration and sadness. She sat down on the floor, her chin propped up on her knees. Her hair covered her face as she looked down at her feet.

Tooth flew up and put her hand on Vida's shoulder in comfort."Don't take it so hard, Vida."

"I'm not, it's just...me a Guardian? How can I be a Guardian? The children don't even believe in me!"

"Sometimes, the answers to questions will always remain unknown. You may not think so, but Manny has plan for you. Special plans. Whatever they are, they're starting now. Do not lose hope. Maybe this was answer you were looking for. You will make great Guardian." North said to her. Vida felt a smile come over her as she listened to North's comforting words. He was right. Maybe this was the answer. But in the back of her head, she couldn't help but repeat her last question.

Why me?

*LTHE*

Jack

Jack went back to watching Sandy's dream sand work its magic, but his mind was still on the alluring voice he'd heard. He groaned in frustration. If only he were quicker, maybe he would've seen the face that the voice belonged to.

"Whoa!" Jack exclaimed as a dark figure shot past him. Jack immediately began to follow the figure. He jumped past a house and onto a nearby tree. Panting heavily, Jack quickly scanned his surroundings for the figure. For a moment, there was only silence, but the figure passed him again and Jack jumped over cars, houses and was finally in an alley on an empty side of town. Staff in defense mode, Jack looked around everywhere, ready to attack if needed.

"Hello mate." He heard a voice say. Jack turned quickly, the figure still in the shadows. "Been a long time. Blizzard of '68 I believe, Easter Sunday wasn't it?"

The figure came out of the shadows and Jack silently sighed at the familiar face. Bunnymund, the Easter Bunny, stepped closer to Jack, signature boomerang in hand.

"Bunny. You're not still mad about that, are ya?" Jack smirked playfully.

"Yes." he said with a glare. "This is about something else…fellas." Suddenly, large hands grabbed Jack by his sweater.

"Hey!" Jack exclaimed as he saw the yetis mumbling in their language. "Put me down!"

The yetis shoved Jack into a dingy red sack, with him yelling and trying to get himself out. One yeti threw one of North's snow globes into the air, creating a portal. The other looked to Bunny, asking him if he was coming.

"Me? Not on your nelly. See you back at the Pole!" The large pooka then tapped the ground, creating a hole and fell in. The yetis looked to each other and shrugged, continuing to throw the still- sacked- yelling Jack into the portal and jumping in themselves.

*LTHE*

Vida

Back at the North Pole, Vida and the others watched as a portal opened and a red sack was thrown at the floor, along with North's yetis. Vida could hear the sound of grunting coming from inside the sack.

"You had your yetis throw him in a sack?" She asked North. She knelt down and untangled the top of the sack, helping Jack out.

"I'm really sorry about this." Vida apologized as she opened the sack. But as Vida looked inside it, she froze. Arctic blue eyes peered at her from the inside and kept her in a trance. She could see white hair and a handsome young man, about her age, staring back at her. As his head peeked out from the sack, she got a better look at him. His skin was pale and he donned a sky blue hoodie covered with frost and a pair of brown slacks. As the two stared at each other, Vida felt her heart beat at an erratic speed as she felt something grow deep inside her, a feeling that she'd never felt before. A kind of…spark.

"Wow," He whispered. Vida finally looked down, away from him as her cheeks burned intensely. She looked back up and smiled bashfully back at Jack, who gave her a smile in return.

Jack

Jack felt speechless as he looked into the girl's eyes. They were a dazzling amethyst color and as he looked her up and down, Jack had never seen anyone so beautiful. She looked no older than he was, wore a magenta dress with blue jeans, a bow and quiver and arrows strapped to her back, and golden brown hair that framed her rosy cheeks and eyes perfectly. His heart pounded deep in his chest and he wasn't sure why. At that moment, all he knew was that he couldn't tear his eyes away from her.

"Wow," he whispered. As she looked away, he realized that she'd heard him. He frowned for a moment desiring to see those eyes again. She glanced up at him again with a smile, cheeks as bright as a blooming rose. He smiled at the sight, she reminded him of a sunset. He didn't know who she was, but his mind was telling him to find out.

CHAPTER 3 EVERYONE! I know it may have ended a bit too soon, but the next chapter starts right where we left off, and more into the movie! How was their meeting? Did you like it? Love it? Hate it? I'd really like to know your opinions! I hope to have the next chapter out faster, but I can't promise it, though I can promise it won't take as long this time!

REVIEW PLEASE!
