Omg hey guys! I'm really sorry that it took a really long time for me to update! I've got no time, I have courses, homeworks, and exams! I am so glad for you who is still reading my story, you all are really patient and loyal ;w;
But my story doesn't get any reviews anymore, so I feel like there is no support for me :/
Well but that doesn't matter! Enjoy the story, okay? Don't forget to review! Bye~
Elsa gazed at Jack who is sleeping, his chest rises and falls regularly. He has been sleeping for a few hours. Unlike Elsa, she hasn't gone sleeping yet. She is not sleepy, and if she closes her eyes, it'll open again later.
She actually feels a bit guilty for lying about her name. Her name is actually not Megan, but she just doesn't want herself to be revealed. And when Jack asked her about her name, Megan is the first name which showed up in her mind, so she used that name.
Elsa has told Jack that she – as Megan – has three younger brothers and a single parent. Elsa said her father died when she was still 9 years old. Jack said that it must be really sucks. Jack doesn't know the truth, actually I've lost both, Elsa said inwardly.
Elsa looked away and then started thinking about her previous life. Nothing special has ever happened – all the thing she has done in the castle is just trapping herself in ice and listen to her sister Anna, begging Elsa to play with her.
And now, Elsa started to regret her decision for running away. If only she'd never run away, maybe she can fix everything. She doesn't have to be a coward by running away just because of arguing with Anna.
Something moved suddenly, which made Elsa quickly look at it. Apparently it's Jack – he is staring at her. "Why aren't you sleeping yet?" he asked.
Elsa smirked. "I'm not sleepy. I am not tired." she said. "I'll secure you, in case suddenly an animal or someone came."
"Nobody can see me." Jack replied in low voice. "I lived for more than 300 years in loneliness. Only the other guardians and Jamie who can see me. That's why I was pretty surprised when I found out you can see me."
"Oh," Elsa said. "Wait – who's Jamie?"
"He is my best friend." Jack said as he looks up at the sky with happy eyes. "I am so happy whenever he is around, but he is still a kid and he still have school and stuffs, right? That's why."
Elsa only nodded. She stared at Jack's shoulder – the jacket's torn, showing some of Jack's pale skin. Sometimes Elsa wants to touch Jack's skin, somehow. But whenever she thinks about it, she'll immediately try to get rid of the thought.
"What are you staring at, Megan?"
Elsa blushed and then smiled sheepishly. "Hahaha, I was just staring at your.."
Jack looked at Elsa curiously. "Come on! What is it? You don't have to be that shy when you're with me." he said, then he grinned. "Right?"
Elsa nodded once again. "Anyway, what time is it?" she asked Jack – just to change the topic. Jack immediately looked at the sky and then counted on something.
"I suppose it's five in the morning?" Jack said as he stares at Elsa with asking eyes. "You still don't have anywhere to go, Megan?"
Elsa frowned when she heard that name, but she quickly answers. "Yes. How about you?"
Without averting his gaze, Jack answered. "Well, I do, actually. Can you stand up?"
"Of course." Elsa said. She rose to her feet – just like what Jack has done before – and then looked at Jack with asking eyes. The boy stretched out his hand.
"Hold my hand, tight – and don't release it." he said. Elsa stared at him in confusion – but she still did it, anyway. She held Jack's cold hand tightly, as if anything could make her release the cold hand.
"Okay, Megan, in three. One, two –"
"Three."
Bam!
"Oh my God!" North shouted loudly in surprise – the cat toy he is holding slipped out from his hand. He looked around, and then his gaze rested on the open window.
Jack's standing on the windowsill, with a girl standing by his side. She glanced at North for a moment, but then quickly looked away – as if North would scold her just because of it.
"Jack! Where have you been?!" North asked with anger and curiosity in himself. The big man walked towards the winter spirit. Just in a second, North is already hugging Jack tightly. The boy gasped in the big man's hug.
"N-north – can't – breathe –"
"Oh hahahahahaha!" North immediately let go of Jack, who fell on the floor. He took a deep breath, then he exhaled.
"That was creepy, North!" Jack said. "You would've killed me!"
North laughed. "So, who is this girl, Jack? And why do you look really awful today?" the big man asked, and then approached the girl. "Good morning."
"Ah- good morning!" she said shakily, and then bowed politely. North smiled.
"What a perfect attitude – what's your name, young lady?"
She blushed for a few seconds. "I'm El – I mean, Megan. I'm sorry, I'm pretty nervous." she said, then she grinned with red face.
"Hahahaha, it's okay! I can smell nervousness, anyway~"
"NORTH! WHAT HAPPENED?"
The three turned around, and found Tooth, Bunny, and Sandy in front of the door. Tooth stared at North with worried eyes, but when she turned to look at Jack, North could see excitement flashing in her eyes.
"Jack! Oh God – JACK! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!" the fairy asked, and then flew towards Jack in great speed. Jack has no time to back off – the fairy's already hugging her.
"I- oh God, could you guys not hug me? I was just wandering around the world." Jack said. "I am okay, Tooth, now can you release me?"
"Ahaha, sure~" Tooth let go of Jack with a grin on her face. Megan is the last one Tooth noticed. "Oh, who are you? What are you doing here, huh?" Tooth asked with hands on her hips.
"Tooth, be polite." North growled, and Tooth waved away.
"Alright, I'm sorry – what's your name?"
She is absolutely avoiding Tooth's judging eyes. "I-I am Megan. I came here with Jack." she said.
"And how old are you?" Tooth asked curiously.
"E-eh?"
"Tooth, stop it." Jack said sternly. Tooth tore her gaze from Megan.
"What? Stop what?" Tooth asked. Jack is looking at Tooth sharply.
"Megan is lost. We met in a forest, and I found out that she also have the same powers as I do. Making blizzards, creating ices.." Jack shrugged. "All I want you guys to do is, please be polite to her. Okay?"
Tooth sighed. "Fine." she flew backwards, keeping distance from Megan. "Alright. Why don't we introduce ourselves first?" she suggested, which was responded by mostly nod.
"I've introduced myself before, but if Tooth wanted me to do it again – fine. I am North, the guardian of wonder." the big man, North said. Megan noticed that he carries a Russian accent.
"I am Bunnymund, the Easter Bunny. I am the guardian of hope, I am the bringer of Easter eggs. Well I think that's obvious." the easter bunny said. Unlike North, he carries an Australian accent. Suddenly Megan feels like living in the fictional world, with animals talking.
"I am Toothiana, the Tooth Fairy! I am the guardian of memories. I have all of the children's memories! I keep them all in my lair." Tooth explained with a kind smile. "It's nice to meet you. I want to apologize about my attitude before."
"I-it's okay." Megan nodded with a smile.
"Well, it's actually because of Jack. She cared so much about Jack and he has been lost for days, that's why when the man came back – with a girl – she is kinda overreacting." Bunnymund spoke up, he turned his gaze to Jack before saying, "you're a reckless guardian, Jack."
"What – hey, I'm just enjoying my freedom!" Jack replied angrily. Megan stared at the boy confusedly. Do they always fight like this? she wondered inwardly, but instantly get rid of the question.
"Okay, guys, stop fighting!" North arbitrated the guardians quickly. "Megan – ah, forget them."
Megan smiled understandingly. "It's okay." she said. She looked around, and then noticed the last guardian. The Sandman, I suppose? Megan thought. Why isn't he introducing himself?
Although Megan already know all of the guardians' name and their personalities, but she wants them to introduce theirselves themselves. And this one, Sandman? Why isn't he –
"And this one is Sandman, the guardian of dreams. He does not speak, he uses the sand images that he conjures above his head to communicate." North explained, as if he could read Megan's mind.
Oh yeah, he couldn't speak. I forgot, Megan said to herself inwardly. "Eh, it's actually cool." she commented. North laughed.
"Fine, so everyone has introduced theirselves, right? Now maybe I can help Megan to change clothes and – wait North, would you let Megan stay in a room?" Tooth asked North, which was responded by a nod. "Good! Okay, follow me Megan~"
Tooth flew towards North's room door joyfully, but was stopped by Bunny. "Tooth, before taking Megan to change – can we talk? Sandy, North, you too." the easter bunny said. North gazed at him with asking eyes, but eventually nodded. "Jack, Megan, would you mind if we ask you to leave us for a moment?"
Jack turned his gaze to Bunny after looking at Tooth quizzically. "Just a moment? Fine." he said, and then he walked towards the door without spirit. Megan supposed it's because he is tired and his hurt shoulder.
Oh God, I forgot about this thing! Megan screamed inwardly. I'll have to find out how to unfreeze it... uhm, Grand Pabbie? he is far away. I don't even know where am I..
Megan sighed, and then left the guardians and followed Jack to the door.
"What d'you wanna talk about, Bunny? I've got some things to do." North asked, straight to the point.
"I observed that Megan girl – and don't you guys notice any strange things from herself?" Bunny asked the guardians. Most of them only look at him confusedly.
"No, I didn't – what did you find out, Bunny?" the tooth fairy questioned Bunny, who frowned.
"I don't know, but I have a hunch. I suppose that girl is lying to us about... her identity." Bunny replied quietly, which shocked Tooth.
A sand image of question mark appeared below Sandman's head. Bunny turned his gaze to the guardian of dreams. "Well, Jack told us that she also have ice powers, didn't he?"
Tooth stared at Bunny, looking for any answers for her unspoken questions. "Yes, he did. So..?"
"I know a girl – a princess actually, from a kingdom named Arendelle. She also have ice powers. Megan and that girl really look alike." Bunny continued, "that girl of Arendelle has platinum blond blonde hair, icy blue eyes, rosy cheeks, pale skin just like Jack's... she absolutely look like Megan."
"So you're telling us that you're suspicious of Megan?"
"Well, isn't that obvious?" Bunny replied. "Ah, whatever. It's okay if you guys don't understand. I was just going to talk about that. Now you can continue your activity."
The easter bunny left the confused guardians. It was really silent before North speak up, "alright. Well, of course I don't know.. have to say, I bring joy but never really pay attention to the kids in the world."
"She has grown up, North. Not anymore a kid!" Tooth replied in high tone. "She didn't answer me when I asked her age. Well, we'll find out. About Jack and Megan, well they have been waiting for really long time and I'm sure they're tired. Let's get going."
