"I'm just so sorry... I couldn't stop him... please don't be mad at me." Jack said a moment before what had been said sank in and he was heartbroken at the words.
"Jamie..." His eyes darkened with anger.
"Who the hell are you taking over Jamie!" Jack snarled, eyes flashing black.
"Taking over? I have always been." He snarled back.
"As for who I am... what's it to you? I don't even know you. Go away." He turned and flew off in a different direction. Jack realized it was him again, the thing that took over Jamie before.
"You bastard... YOU KILLED SOPHIE! YOU MADE HIM DO THAT!" He didn't let him go so easily, tackling the spirit.
"No, you're not going anywhere! Let Jamie be!"
"I don't know what the hell you're talking about! Leave me alone damn it!" He struggled, blasting ice at Jack in an attempt to get the other to let him go. Jack didn't seem phased by it, growling he knocked the spirit out easily.
"Sorry Jamie." Jack sighed, picking up Jamie he decided the best course of action was to go to the pole but he didn't want to make things worse. It would be some time before he'd come to again, his head pounding. He looked around, he had a headache... Well, he couldn't say that other spirit didn't pack a punch.. but where was he? Nothing seemed familiar. It was the log cabin's bedroom. Jack huffed in irritation with Jakoul.
"What am I gonna do? This spirit or whatever it is doesn't even know me... he doesn't seem bad like before." Jakoul chuckled.
"Maybe it's memory loss." Jack thought on that for a moment.
"Maybe." He looked at the door and thought that maybe he should check on him, but he didn't want to be hit with ice first thing... He decided to do something easier and sent soup in first on a rolling tray with a note that rolled slowly to the side of the bed, it bumped into the nightstand. He stared at the little tray with the soup on it. What the hell is this?! He froze the soup. No way was he going to eat something given to him by that spirit. He wasn't born yesterday after all, he knew too well that was a good way to get drugged... or worse. He wasn't taking any chances. Though he did glance at the note, curious as to what it said:
Sorry about the bump. Don't be mad, I'm just wanting to know you. Door's unlocked. You can leave any time you want, but the soup... if you're thinking it is drugged it's not. Trust me on that at least.
"Wanting to know me? Does this spirit even know how to write? Honestly... and why the hell should I trust a guy who knocked me out?" He grumbled, but he did test the door... it is unlocked... What the hell?! Well... fine... he didn't really want to be here. Ignoring the frozen soup he slipped out of the room and down the stairs.
"Oh flake... I'm back where I started!" He recognized the living room. Jack huffed, ignoring the angry spirit, Jakoul talking to him in his head.
"Shut up Jakoul. If he leaves, he leaves; you know what... if this thing is so evil Jamie would never let it get the best of him forever." With a sigh, he headed for the front door. He didn't want to be here. Yes he'd woken up here, but that didn't mean he liked the place. Jack huffed, ignoring the spirit opening the door and flying off; he ignored him.
"It's not like he'll get far around here." He flew off into the night. He didn't know what the other spirit wanted nor did he care. It was time to have a little fun.. He flew off towards the nearest town... but there wasn't anything left of it so he kept going until he found another one. With a smirk he slicked the roads and as cars slid into each other chaos begin it's reign... Jack sighed, he felt something was wrong; he had a few believers in the area that Jamie was terrorizing.
"No..." Jack flew off towards the area, when he made it there he saw Jamie was hurting people with snow he'd given them. He snarled.
"HEY! LEAVE THEM ALONE!" Ice slammed into him, he tumbled from the unexpected blast but just snarled back; darting away from the other winter spirit. He iced sidewalks as he flew off, laughing as an elderly lady slid along the ice and into the road, straight into the path of a car... Jack gasped, grabbing the lady from certain death. He snarled at the other spirit as he saved and set the woman down before he shot after Jamie. He growled.
"You're nothing but trouble at this point you bastard!" Jack yelled, ice and wind aiding him and slamming the other into the trees all the way until he hits a branch that doesn't crack. He winced when he hit the branch, but it barely even slowed him down as he shot up into the air again and flew away from the town. He'd just have to find some place else to spread his "fun" around. Jakoul chuckled as he picked up on the thought.
"You think such things as fun as that? That's nothing compared to a place I know that you can spread all the fun you want." Jack gasped.
"JAKOUL NO! DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE!" He followed, no longer beating the spirit around.
"You like to have fun don't you?" Jakoul called out.
"I know a good place you can spread all your fun and sorry about that back there I was trying to get free. You know that bastard Jack wouldn't let me out to meet you." He looked at Jakoul a little suspiciously.
"A split personality huh? Well... alright... if you know a good place lead the way." Jakoul smirked.
"Glad you understand, follow me. I know you'll love this place; all the things you can break and the fun we'll have." He snickered, icing a road and making a semi slam into a house.
"You try only for the semis though, they cause more damage." All the while Jack's screaming at Jakoul to stop.
"Oh, let me explain to you about this Jamie you're confused about." Jakoul told the other spirit all about Jamie and Jack, their weaknesses and such to manipulate if they ever fought back.
"Basically, you're a spilt personality as well."
"Huh... well I don't feel like one." He shrugged.
"By the way... My name's Gale. I think you and I are going to get along just fine..." He smirked, sending a large truck hauling logs of wood careening off the road into a nearby church. Jakoul chuckled.
"I like that name, Gale. It fits." He sent ice to freeze a small child who had been caught out in the cold.
"Hmm... if Jack comes back feel free to get him to submit for me 'cause it's hard keeping control." The two land in the familiar area of Burgess.
"We start here and then I have another place in mind." Gale shrugged a little.
"Not sure how exactly you expect me to, but I'll see what I can do. What's so special about this place? That last one was bigger." He glanced around the area.
"It's a little special place, I was born here... well, Jack was." He chuckled darkly.
"And trust me, it's easy. He gets out of control very easily. Just push him over the edge and I'll take control once more. Now then, let's have some fun and I know just the place and area to start." Jakoul flew off, laughing darkly; leading to the town center where there were hundreds of people watching the town Christmas tree be lit, it was a giant tree. Gale grinned at the crowd.
"That tree seems to be missing something..." Frost slowly covered it, lights and all, shorting all the lights on it and breaking a few. While people began to wonder what is going on, Gale caused the temperature to drop suddenly and ice to slick beneath the feet of the many people below.
"Oh you are so much fun!" Jack cries out.
"No! It's not! It's not fun!" Even Gale could hear his cries a little, Jakoul having already explained the bond. Jakoul smiled and made the wind harsh, snow built up, knocking over cars and semis slammed into the people and the tree; the gasoline truck hit the tree square on.
"Your turn, i think it should go off with a bang, don't you?" Gale smirked.
"Who doesn't like fireworks?" He formed a blade of ice in the air and sent it careening into the fuel tank, a second slams into the power cord, exposing wires which then set the pooling gasoline on fire. The tree slowly caught on fire and a few seconds later the semi exploded even as people were scrambling to get out of the way. Screams filled the air followed by more screams when the truck exploded. Screams of pain and Gale only smiled.
"This is so great! Imagine what other places we can terrorize!" Jakoul laughs, only to gasp for air; Jack was fighting hard, his eyes returning blue as he saw the fire.
"No... no... what have I done?"
"You? Don't be such a baby. Besides... aren't you the Guardian of Fun itself?" Gale replied nonchalantly, smirking near the end. Jack shuddered.
"Shut up." He shook his head as he floated down, trying to put out the fires but it wasn't working and he screamed in frustration while Jakoul sent a whisper over the bond.
"He always thinks after I have my fun it's his fault, use that guilt to your advantage." Gale smirked, he had a better idea.
"Oh don't be such a spoil sport. I haven't had this much fun ever! Besides, it's thanks to you I'm finally free... you and Jakoul. AFter all, it was nice of him to give me my first wake up call with that little girl... the surprise on her face... oh that was just delicious. Thanks for waking me up." Jack felt his heart break, guilt eating at him; he whimpered, crying and Jakoul took that chance to take control but Jack wouldn't give in just yet, whining in pain.
"It's all my fault..." Jakoul took complete control then.
"Ugh. Thanks for helping me. I need to find a way to keep him under somehow. How did you get free anyway?" Gale smirked.
"Your little show at that town near the cabin. He was already overwhelmed over the girl's death and Jack's lack of actually being a proper friend, let alone knowing how to be more than that. He just needed a tiny push... and he couldn't take it anymore. You just so happened to provide that push at the right time. He just gave up and blacked out." Jakoul smirked.
"Glad I could be of help, now I wish I could get Jack to be as submitting as Jamie." He snickered suddenly at a new thought.
"You want to meet the Guardians? I'm sure they could use our fun." He laughed. Gale shrugged.
"Well I don't think the boy has had enough time to deal with things like Jack has... good luck finding a way. The boy will likely just sleep as long as he can. I'll just have to make sure he never wakes up..." He smirked a little at the mention of the Guardians.
"That sounds dangerous..." He snickered though.
"Let's go!"
