I have a question. I have a picture of Cherry's Ball gown, but I don't know how to share it with you lot. Can someone please tell me!

I also have a competition. I need an image of Cherry, Jack, and Aster for the cover. You draw it and find a way to send it to me. The best will become my new cover image.

Good Luck.

(If you need more info on what Cherry looks like, PM me)


The Guardians stood there, in shock. For Pitch to threaten the Guardians was considered normal. But he just pulled in a spirit who had only been seen today. He had NEVER done that before. He just dragged Cherry into the war between himself and his nightmares and the 5 Guardians.

Cherry had a passive expression. In all honesty she had no clue what to do in situations like this. She was a lone spirit. She didn't ever converse with another spirit. She never even went to the Seasons meetings. She was scared to have any amount of attention pushed onto her. It reminded her of what happened, before her immortalisation.


Cherry was the second oldest child in the village of Burgess. She was a studious type however she loved to hang out with Jackson and the other children in the village. Jackson would play mass games of Tag, Hide-And-Seek, and Stuck in the Mud. Sometimes he would tell stories or put on plays. In his spare time however, he hung out with her as they were at least 5 years older than the rest of the children.

One day, Cherry and Jackson were sitting by the lake when they heard commotion come from the village. They ran and saw the children being full on wrestled by some bullies from the town over. Cherry yanked Jack by the arm into his home and told him to change.

"Why do I have to change!? We gotta help the kids!"

"If you are capable of fighting in the 5 sweaters your mother gave us then please inform me! He gave a sheepish grin and they changed into tops and jeans, pulling their ponchos on top.

The Dynamic Duo (as they were known as) flashed outside.

Jack smiled and punched one of the 2 bullies in the face. Cherry did the same to the other. "TAG. YOU'RE IT!" They cried simultaneously, running off at full speed.

After that incident, they always spent time with the younger ones. They were scared the bullies would return to exact their revenge. They almost forgot the other existed. The Dynamic Duo was lost to those 2 bullies.


Cherry was helping her Mum in the kitchen when she found out.

"Knock, knock."

Cherry's mother wiped her hands and opened the door. It was Mrs. Overland. The 2 women conversed, Jackson's mother holding Flee tight. The 2 mothers and the young girl walked into the kitchen with red eyes and stained cheeks.

"Mother? Mrs. Overland? Flee? What happened?"

They indicated the 17 year old to sit down on one of the 2 couches. Mrs. Overland and Cherry's mother sat on the larger couch. Cherry sat on the smaller one. Flee jumped into her lap, hugging the older girl tight, sobbing uncontrollably.

Half an hour later, Cherry was crying, clutching Flee like she would too disappear.

Jackson Overland was dead.


A week later there was another knock on the door. Cherry pulled the cake out of the oven and answered it. It was several mothers and their young children. There was a market a few villages over. All the men would be extremely busy hunting and so the women went to Cherry. The girl was overwhelmed. Normally, Jackson would come up with the games. She had no clue how to handle so many children by herself.

She helped them draw and paint, (she was the best artist in the village) but anything else was beyond her abilities. Without Jack they were never truly happy.


Cherry was yanked out of her memories by a certain spirit of Christmas. "We need to talk with Manny. Come with haste!" Cherry made her way to leave until...

"Yar coming too, Snowflake." Cherry glared at the nickname, but went with them too the Globe Room.

Manny and North were having an intense conversation, and hearing only half of the it didn't help the others understand any better.

They expected North to turn around and tell them a huge list of things to do. But instead...

"Bunnymund. Manny is saying to heed Pitch's advice."

Tooth went wide eyed. "Hang on a moment. We have been standing here for 2 hours and you only convey a single sentence!?"

"Let me finish. Jack, you need to as well."

Bunny went over the conversation he had with Pitch. 2 sentences stuck out.

"3 words for you Bunnymund. Check the archives."

"The Archives."
