I do not own Rise of the Guardians
Jack travelled to his home town, after he checked the feel of things. He found that he had slept through Spring, Summer, and almost through Rumple's Autumn. He quickly fixed up some areas, giving them the much needed snow, before moving on.
Soon he spotted the person who he wanted to see.
Rumple was frowning when Jack arrived.
"First ya take my Season," The man whined. "Then I have to start doing your work and mine. And now ya show up, on the day before Halloween!"
"Sorry, Rumple, Jack apologized. "It's just when Torch told me about a volcano exploding-"
"Torch neva mentioned this t' me," Rumple said, jabbing a pointy finger in the boy's chest. Jack stepped back, and he saw the man suddenly look shocked.
"Where'd you gets your new outfit from?" Rumple asked, pointing at Jack.
The boy looked down at his cloak and he smiled.
"I don't know," Jack admitted. "But I like it."
"Pah," Rumple said, waving the boy off. "I gots to get ready for the Halloween."
Jack Frost grinned as he leaned against his staff. He heard a sharp whistle from the man and within a few minutes, a few imps appeared.
As Rumple started to give out orders to his imps, Jack watched. He saw that there were three of them. One looked sort of like it had a pumpkin for a head, with holes where its eyes would have been and a dank green body. The second one looked more like a black cat, with bony horns coming out of its skull. And the last one looked sort of like a toad, with warts and all.
The Winter Spirit smiled as he recognized them to be Jakul, Scat and Moog. He knew that they were Rumple's imps that he chose to help him for his Halloween. They had been thrilled to be promoted by the Imp lord, to be stewards of the still unheard of Holiday.
After Rumple was done, Jack saw the Imps vanish into the foliage.
"I can help," Jack offered.
Rumple looked at the boy for a moment, then he nodded, "Okay, but you have to do what I tell you."
Jack smiled.
An hour later, Jack Frost was dressed up as a colonial boy. He grinned as he flew over the villages, and causing chaos and confusion, as he knocked on doors, windows and spooked the horses. He did all what Rumple ordered him to do and it landed him right on the Naughty list.
It was the first time that he had ever been on the naughty list, as he caused enough trouble to assure the fourteenth place. But he found that he had fun with it event.
Rumple was pleased that night, with a great night's work. And even told Jack such.
And the Moon quietly watched as the boy rested under a fir tree for the rest of that night.
I hope that you enjoyed. The next chapter will be longer.
Let me know what you think, and leave a comment.
