The sleigh really was easy to fly, at least Jack thought so. Jamie was laughing at first, thrilled to be riding in Santa's sleigh. Just as North always said, everyone loved the sleigh. The sky was clear and the sleigh moved much quicker than Jack thought it would, making their ride to Burgess short and easy. The robots seemed to clear out once Jack reached the edge of the tri-state area. It confused him, making him wonder what kind of man would want to take over a small town. Normally, evil people tried to go for world domination, not tri-state area domination.
Jack landed near Jamie's house, on a frozen lake nearby. He climbed out, helping Jamie get out too. "Whoa, everything looks so different here." Jamie said, comparing this place to his home.
"Of course it does. Come on, kid, let's get going." Jack said, pulling him along. Normally, Jack would have found a way to make their journey a bit more entertaining, but right now he was in a hurry. He had to stop those robots before it was too late for Danville.
"Uh, Jack? What are we going to tell the other me when we get there?" Jamie asked as they walked, getting nervous now that they were closer to meeting him.
Jack shrugged, not too concerned with the details. "You'll think of something. Besides, it's up to you to get him to see me." Jack added, remembering that his Jamie didn't believe yet. Soon, that was going to change. Jack couldn't wait to tell the kid about how he was responsible for his sledding incident a while back. He smiled just thinking about it, the way Jamie had laughed as he slid across the ice.
"Wait, I have to get him to see you? He doesn't believe in you?" Jamie asked, glancing at Jack. He gave Jamie a small grin, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
"Well, not exactly. You were actually the first person who ever saw me." Jack told him, flying ahead now that they were closer to the house. Jamie stared at Jack in surprise, realizing so much more about the winter spirit. He was always making smart comments and laughing at the people around him, probably because he was used to being unheard by the world. The guy was lonely, getting entertainment from whatever he could since no one would speak with him.
Jamie knew he would get his other self to believe, for Jack. It was the least he could do for the winter spirit, for stopping A/D Pitch's reign in his world. Hesitantly, A/D Jamie reached out and knocked on the door, waiting to see who would answer.
"Well, that's one way to get his attention." Jack commented, shaking his head at the kid. He had planned on flying the boy up to Jamie's window, but now that plan was ruined.
"How else was I supposed to get inside?" A/D Jamie asked, glancing at the winter spirit for a moment before the door opened.
"Jamie? What are you doing outside, you'll catch a cold in this weather!" a women said, one that looked identical to A/D Jamie's mother. Before the kid could respond, he felt himself getting pushed inside, followed by Jack.
"Sorry, I'll just…go to my room now." A/D Jamie said uncomfortably, uncertain of what to say to this other version of his mother. Jamie walked upstairs, trying to avoid glancing back at Jack who was flying behind him.
"Sophie, stop bothering me. I'm trying to figure out what happened to the Easter Bunny last week." Jamie said from inside his room, his head shoved deep inside a book. He hadn't found any eggs this year, just like all of his friends. but Jamie wasn't ready to give up his belief. No matter what his friends said, Jamie knew that they were all out there. Maybe the Easter Bunny was busy planning something huge for next year, so huge that he didn't have time to hide eggs for the kids last week.
His little sister had snuck inside his room again, trying to play games with her brother. She was just as interested in fairy tales as he was, but right now she couldn't possibly understand what he was doing. Even his books on the Easter Bunny and the other beings he knew of didn't tell him why Easter hadn't come. "Still reading that book?" Jack asked, flying inside through the open door and seeing the story he was reading. It was the same one as before, except it was no longer focused on bigfoot. This time, he was looking into Bunny, which surprised Jack.
"Wh-who are you? What's going on?" Jamie asked, seeing the boy that had just come into his room. Sophie giggled, more entertained than surprised by what looked like a second Jamie.
"Hey, Sophie. Wanna go outside and search for the Easter Bunny?" A/D Jamie suggested, knowing how easy it was to distract his own younger sister. She always loved animals, rabbits especially. This one seemed to share that trait, her eyes getting brighter at the possibility.
"Easter Bunny, hop, hop hop!" she cheered, jumping out the door and rushing outside.
"So, you got rid of Sophie. Now what are you going to do?" Jack asked, grinning at A/D Jamie. He tried to ignore the winter spirit, frustrated that he couldn't talk to him without looking crazy.
"Uh, this is going to be hard to explain." A/D Jamie began, scratching the back of his head.
"Why do you look like me? How do you know my sister's name?" Jamie asked, still unable to stop the flow of questions from his mouth. This was just too weird, impossible to be real but still happening anyway. Maybe it was some creepy dream. After all, his friends had some scary dreams a while ago, which seemed to have stopped lately.
"Well, I guess that's because I am you. Well, you from another dimension anyway." A/D Jamie answered uncomfortably, biting his lip as he stared at his other self.
"Another dimension? Like, another world? That is so awesome! Who else is over there? Are you friends with Claude and Pippa as well? Oh, what about Cupcake?" Jamie asked, only getting more questions now that A/D Jamie had answered. Both of them were beginning to grin at each other, realizing just how cool this was. No one else would get the chance to say they had met themselves, at least not in Burgess.
"Yeah, they are all there, but I haven't seen them in a while. Along with them, there is also Bunny, North, Sandy, Tooth…and Jack Frost." A/D Jamie said, glancing towards the winter spirit. Somehow, he had to convince his other self that Jack was real.
"Nice, do you think that'll do it?" Jack asked, flying next to A/D Jamie. He waved his hand a bit in front of Jamie's face, sighing when he didn't react.
"Of course it didn't." Jack commented, getting upset and wondering if this had been a good idea after all.
"Who? Wait…mom mentioned Jack Frost. She said it was just an expression." Jamie commented, thinking about the other names as well. It sounded like the people he believed in, like Santa and the Tooth Fairy, just shorter names. Maybe they were called something else in this other dimension?
"He's so much more than a little expression. He brings snow everywhere! He even made it snow in my room! It was awesome, and then we got to have this massive snowball fight after flying to another town. Not walking, flying!" A/D Jamie was saying, getting excited just talking about his adventures with Jack.
Jamie's eyes were wide with surprise, thinking that it truly did sound like a fun adventure. He wanted to meet Jack Frost too. Maybe this world had a Jack Frost that would take him flying too. As he thought that, a boy suddenly appeared in his room, one with pale white hair and a dark blue hoodie.
"Uh, Jamie, I think you're forgetting the point." he said, poking A/D Jamie to get his attention.
Jamie didn't care, he was too busy staring at him with wide eyes. "Jack Frost." he whispered, unable to believe that the winter spirit was actually in his room.
"Yeah, you know the guy you're supposed to be helping? Do I need to help? Maybe a little bit of frost on the window?" Jack asked, not realizing that the other Jamie was the one that spoke. A/D Jamie grinned, recognizing the expression on his other self's face.
"Jack Frost!" Jamie cheered again, this time with a bit more excitement. "You're real, you're in my room!" he added, grinning and reaching over towards the winter spirit.
"Or not. I guess that did work." Jack commented, grinning at the Jamie from his world.
"Can you make it snow in my room too?" Jamie asked, wanting to see what Jack had done for his other self.
"Sure, we can do that later. Maybe even bring some of your friends over and we can have an indoor snowball fight." Jack said, thinking it would be fun. Sure, it might get a few things wet inside, but he didn't care. After all, it was all in the spirit of having fun. Jamie's face fell slightly, losing some of his excitement as he realized he wouldn't get to have as much fun as his other self.
"Hey, don't look like that kid! We'll still have plenty of fun later, we just have to take care of something else first. Besides, I promise you'll have even more fun helping us out than you would with just some snow in your room." Jack told him, giving Jamie a small grin.
"What are we doing?" he asked, curious. Jack's small grin turned into a full smile.
"First, we need to go get your friends. Then, we are all taking a little trip in Santa's sleigh." Jack said. Jamie's eyes grew wide, thrilled with the thought of riding in the sleigh.
"Really? I get to ride in his sleigh?" he asked, unable to believe it was true.
"Sure, you and all of your friends. Let's go." Jack said, getting up and grabbing the kid's hand. Together, the three of them rushed around town, gathering all of the children of Burgess into the sleigh. One by one, Jamie helped them believe and once they believed, they were brought to the sleigh. Once it was full, Jack took off back towards Danville. They had some robots to destroy and some Guardians to save.
