Jack was sitting on the couch in the Globe Room with Bunny and Tooth not far from him. He looked at the fireplace, feeling the heat almost scorch his face, which caused him to move over some on the couch, away from it. Being the personification of ice and snow, the fire was his enemy.
"Jack Frost!" A very angry voice spoke up, making him look over and wince. It was Oriana Heat, the Spirit of Summer. Obviously, she and Jack didn't get along very well, and Dottie sensed that at the door.
"Oh boy." She as she fixed her crimson red curly/wavy hair a bit.
"Hey, Oriana! How's summer been for ya?!" Jack asked nervously as Oriana walked up to him and crossed her arms over her chest. She stared daggers at him before giggling.
"Sorry. I can't stay mad when it's Christmas." She said as Jack stood up from the couch confused.
"So, we're good for the day?" He asked with his usual grin, only to get a smirk back from the young Summer Spirit.
"How about...the rest of next year. My present to you, Mr. Frost." Oriana said as she curtsied with her golden gown.
"Oh please!" Jack protested, which made the young girl giggle again. "Also, I'm not used to seeing you in a gown."
"Don't expect it often, Frost." Oriana began. "I only dressed up today because of Christmas."
"Same!" Farah called out as she slowly walked in wearing her gown of a pure white dress with some black accents here and there, with Oracle not far behind her.
Jack looked over immediately and was in awe as the young snowstorm spirit walked up to him. "Wow...you look great, kiddo." He said with a smile.
"Oracle helped me out with this." Farah began. "You should have seen the colors this was before."
"I bet it still would have been beautiful." Began Oriana with a smile. "But you look gorgeous, Snow."
"Thanks, Orie."
Just then, the jingle of bells was heard throughout the workshop, making Sandy wake up and jump/float in the air out of excitement.
"Come on, everyone!" Oracle called as she started walking towards the other entrance that Dottie was by. "The party is about to begin!"
"WHOO!" Farah yelled as she started walking with the Moon Spirit and Summer Spirit, while Bunny, Tooth, and Sandy walked out behind them.
Dottie looked over at Jack and smiled at his dopey look. She knew he was staring at her outfit for the party, which was a big skirted ballgown with green peplums on the sides and in front of the pure white skirt, a green top with white off the shoulders long sleeves that came to a point on the tops of her hands, a green choker around her neck, and a silver tiara on her head.
"Whoa..." Jack said as he walked up to her, with his staff in hand. "You look...beautiful."
"Thanks, Jack," Dottie said before she felt his cold hand take hers and lead her out of the Globe Room and to the Ballroom.

Indigo stood in the forest by Jack's pond, leaning against a tree with her arms crossed over her chest, as her face held no emotion at all. Just darkness surrounded her eyes as she stared at her reflection.
"There you are." Pitch's voice spoke up, making the young blue-clad spirit look to her right to see the Nightmare King walking towards her.
"Hello again, Pitch." She said smirking now. "Anything you found out that was interesting?"
"As a matter of fact, I did." Pitch began as he walked up to her and leaned on the tree in front of her, her red eyes following his movements. "Looks like Frost has his sister back in his life."
"Really?" Indigo asked, intrigued. "And that wouldn't happen to be Farah Snow, now would it?"
"Indeed it is, Queen Fear."
"Oh, I love that name!" Indigo declared. "But that knowledge is perfect. Good work." Pitch just nodded towards as thanks before she pushed herself off of the tree and went towards the frozen over pond, smirking all the way. "Anything else?" She finally asked again, as she looked forward and saw Dottie, as her old self, laughing at a human Jack. Both were made out of her blue sand.
"Not that I know of. Why?" Pitch responded as Indigo swiped her hand and made the image dissolve.
"Because if his sister is with him again, then that means his best friend, girlfriend, and fiancé has to be with him again too."
"And how would you know this?" Pitch asked as he walked up to her with curiosity coming to his face.
"Let's just say...I had a run in with him back then." Indigo answered.

North came into the ballroom, where all the spirits and Guardians were waiting, and smiled as they all yelled "MERRY CHRISTMAS!"
"Merry Christmas to you all, and to all the kids, GOODNIGHT!" North yelled back as everyone went berserk, which made Farah laugh with Oriana.
(SONG: "The Christmas Song" - Celtic Woman)
Dottie had walked up to the microphone on the stage in the far back of the ballroom and smiled when the first person she saw was Jack, standing by the steps to the stage, smiling back at her.
DOTTIE: Chestnuts roasting/on an open fire/Jack Frost nipping/at your nose/Yuletide carols/being sung by a choir/and folks/dressed up like Eskimos/everybody knows/some turkey and some mistletoe/help to make the season bright/tiny tots/with their eyes all aglow/will find it hard to sleep/tonight.
They know that Santa's/on his way/he's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh/and every mother's child/is gonna spy/to see if reindeer/really know/how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase/from kids from 1/to 92/though it's been said/many times/many ways/Merry Christmas/to you.
Jack's smile widened as he listened to Dottie sing. It was like when they were in 1712 together, alive and planning to get married someday. It was like old times. It felt nice, and Farah could attest to that. She missed Dottie's voice too and was glad she got to perform right now.
What a great Christmas present. She thought with a smile.
DOTTIE: And every mother's child/is gonna spy/to see if reindeer/really know/how to fly!
And so I'm offering this simple phrase/from kids from 1/to 92/though it's been said/many times/many ways/Merry Christmas/Merry Christmas/Merry Christmas...to you.
(End of song)
At the end of Dottie's performance, everyone went berserk. Farah was clapping with excitement as Bunny whistled and Jack shot some ice up to the ceiling, making a bunch of icicles go around and sparkle in the lights of the room.
"Whoa!" Dottie said with a smile. She watched the icicles as the memory of her engagement entered her brain. It was just like that, only 305 years later and in a modern building. It felt nice and lifted her heart up in so many different ways than others.
"Jack puts nice touch to party...no?" North stated to Bunny, who just grinned and nodded his head.
Oracle smiled at Dottie's performance before she felt something calling to her, making her sneak out of the ballroom and go towards the Globe, where she saw the moon in the opened ceiling window.
"Father, is something wrong?" She asked as a hologram image of Indigo and Pitch appeared before her, making her tense up. "No...father, you have to send me to them so I can stop whatever plan they've hatched!" Oracle yelled but got no answer and the request wasn't granted.
She sighed as she looked at the hologram again and glared at Indigo with a fire in her icy blue eyes. "You will never win my son's heart...Agatha."
