Um...I don't own Rise of the Guardians...and hmmm...there was something else...Ah yes! Take your time and enjoy the ride.
"Hold on guys," Stein says as he grabs Jack and Bunny's shoulders before they can walk into the room where everyone else is waiting, both turn to look at him questioningly.
Alice smirks already seeing were Stein is going with this, "Do we have to Trick?"
Stein looks at her and smirks, "Of course Treat!"
"Um...what is going on?" Jack questions, turning to completely face the two, Bunny soon does the same.
Stein lets them go then he and Alice close their eyes and a red curtain surrounds them both.
"Where did that bloody curtain come from?" Bunny asked, becoming slightly startled and taking a step back, Jack just laughed lightly and waited in anticipation.
When the curtain finally disappeared Jack and Bunny were shocked to be facing...themselves?
"Woah!" Jack said in wonder as he stepped closer to touch himself on the shoulder.
Bunny also stepped forward but with caution, "What did you..."
The other Bunny and Jack laughed and the Jack said with a smirk, "It's me...Stein," then he pointed to the other Bunny, "and that's Alice."
She waved with her paw, "That's our power, we can dress up."
Jack began to circle Stein, "Wow, you even sound like us!"
Even Bunny became impressed, "Do you have our powers too?"
Alice tapped her foot on the ground and Bunny waited for a tunnel to open but saw none come, "Nope, we can only dress..."
"...we can't become," Stein finished as he again placed his arm on Jack's shoulder to lean slightly.
Bunny nodded then looked at the two Jacks, "First I can't tell who the bloody real one is, and second what are you two planning?"
Jack laughed and raised his hand, "I'm real."
Then Alice spoke to answer Bunny's question, "Stein wants to play a little trick is all."
Bunny nodded quickly catching on, "So you two are going to imitate us?"
Both Alice and Stein nodded as Stein stopped leaning on Jack to walk over to Alice.
"That's so cool! Can we watch?"
Stein laughed and nodded at Jack, "Just don't be seen."
Jack nodded as well and then grabbed Bunny to fly off, "Come on Bunny let's get somewhere high."
"Oi, Frostbite put me down!"
Jack simply laughed then flew higher as to hide in a crevice near the globe wear everyone was waiting.
Stein looked over at Alice and held at his hand, "Ready?"
Alice took his hand and nodded.
"Do they really have to hold hands like that?" Bunny complained as him and Jack watched from up high, but Jack simply shushed him.
As they got closer they stopped holding hands and got into character.
"Oh rack off Frostbite!" Alice began to say loudly as they walked into the room.
"I definitely win," Stein retorted with a slight laugh and a smirk.
Both Bunny and Jack had to place a hand over their mouths to contain their laughter as they saw the other three look at Alice and Stein with confusion.
Tooth quickly got up and flew over to Jack, "Is everything okay?"
Alice glared harshly at Stein, "Oi North, you need to get this boy away from me!"
North stood up and walked closer to Alice, "What is problem Bunny?"
Stein quickly walks away from Tooth and points his staff at Alice, "I didn't even do anything!"
"Sure mate," Alice retorted with sarcasm.
Sandman laughs in the background, already understanding what is going on, and he secretly waves to the real Jack and Bunny.
"You wanna take this outside Kangaroo?!"
Alice steps so her and Steins face are barely apart, "You don't wanna fight a rabbit mate."
"Try me."
"STOP!" North shouts actually surprising Alice and Stein and Stein moves his pointer finger in a circle, Alice gives a small nod.
"What's going on?!" Tooth asks frantic
"Bunny's mad that I found them first!" Stein replied leaning his staff on his shoulder like Jack usually does.
"Seeing them before me doesn't mean a thing mate!"
Stein moves over to Alice and places his arm on her shoulder to lean sligthly, "Technically it does."
Alice rolls her eyes, "Technically they found us."
North looks even more confused and Tooth flutters over to them, "You found them? Where are they?"
"Right here," Alice and Stein say at the same time as they lean back to back.
"What do you mean? All I see is Bunny and Jack." North questions, still confused.
Both snap their fingers and close their eyes as a red curtain comes and surrounds them both, while North and Tooth gasp in surprise.
When the curtain disappears Alice and Stein are standing still back to back smirking at the two surprised Guardians.
Then they face them completely and give a little bow, "It's a pleasure," they say at the same time.
"I'm Stein Hallows..."
"and I'm Alice Eve."
North grins then runs up to hug them both, "That was quite a show," at first both are shocked but then they laugh and hug back.
Then Tooth flies over and smiles at them, "Such nice teeth, even when you were alive."
Alice smiles, "Just for you," Stein nods in agreement with Alice.
"I could have just hopped down."
All of the Guardians look to see Jack holding Bunny and flying to meet them, "This is faster," they hear Jack reply and Stein and Alice just look at each other and roll their eyes.
The two back away from the group slightly, "I think we are more needed then we originally thought Treat." Alice nods, "I couldn't agree more Trick but they aren't quite ready yet," Stein nods then grabs Alice's hand as they walk to rejoin the group that is now sitting.
Alice and Stein sit together with Jack and Bunny, pushing the two Guardians closer together.
"Was that your power?" Tooth questions as she sits next to Sandy.
"Yes, we can dress as anyone..." Alice begins.
"...however we don't have their powers," Stein finishes
"That was our first time actually using it in front of someone, we shouldn't have been so cruel but Trick couldn't help himself," Alice explains.
Stein elbows Alice, "Oh please Treat you didn't even try to stop me."
Alice laughed, "True."
Jack leans forward to look at them both, "That reminds me, why do you two call each other that?"
"Each other what?" Stein questions looking at Jack.
"Trick and Treat," Bunny clarifies.
Alice stands and drags Stein with her and looks at them all with a warm smile, "How about we explain from the beginning?"
All the Guardians nod and Stein begins, "You all know how we died right?"
They nod and Bunny and Jack's face become somber, Alice and Stein look at each other with concern and hold each other's hand.
"Well when we were stabbed all of those nightmares tried to take us over and it was painful..." Alice said as she stared at the floor and gripped Stein's hand harder.
"...We couldn't see or breathe...but then..." Stein continued.
"...the moon," they both said at the same time as they smiled at all the Guardians.
"He made them all burst and then Stein and I just fell asleep in his light."
"But before that he told us we are the spirits of Halloween. Then when I woke up it was fall and I was wearing these clothes," Stein said as he gestured to himself and Alice nodded in agreement.
"I woke up after Stein and at first didn't trust him but after a couple days of learning about our powers and such we grew much closer."
"Then on one night the moon said something..."
"'Trick and Treat,'" Alice repeated.
"Usually it's Trick or Treat so we thought about it for a while and then discovered that I was the tricks of Halloween..."
"...and I was the treats."
"I was the monster and witch costumes..."
"...while I was the prince and princess ones."
All the Guardians sat in complete silence as they listened and eventually a silence ensued.
"Um...we're done," Stein said with a laugh as he and Alice moved to sit back down.
"Now can you explain more as to why we're here?" Alice questioned.
"Ah yes," North began as he stood and walked over to the globe," Manny says you are Guardians."
Alice and Stein get up and walked over to North, "Manny?" she questions.
"The Man in the Moon," Jack replies as he moves to stand behind them.
Both nod as the Guardians move to stand next to North who has begun to read the oath from his book.
"We will," both say at the same time.
"But what are we the Guardians of?" Stein questions and Alice nods her head.
"We actually don't know," Tooth replies.
"Then is it okay for us to be sworn in?" Alice asks.
Sandy nods his head and Bunny speaks up, "Sure, it just means Manny wants you to figure it out."
Both look at each other and shrug with a grin.
"Well it's been fun but we should go," Stein says.
"Go where?" Jack asks Stein.
"To observe, it's Halloween and we just figured we would fly around and make sure everything is okay," Alice replies.
The other Guardians nod their heads as Alice and Stein begin to leave but Jack stops them.
He stumbles over some words but finally asks, "Can I go with?" with a nervous smile.
Alice and Stein smile as they grab each other's' hands and hold out their other for Jack to grab hold of. When he does they pull him a little closer and they laugh before they all fly out the window of Santoff Claussen.
"It is like he has siblings now," North says and the other Guardians nod.
After Halloween Alice and Stein land in their clearing, Jack right behind them.
"Welcome to our home," Stein says with a grin as he and Alice gesture to the clearing.
Jack walks around, "Where do you guys sleep?"
"Usually on the floor," Alice replies.
Jack walks over to them and places his hands on their shoulders, "That simply won't do!"
Both are shocked by Jack's sudden tone, "Well what choice do we have," Alice says.
"Just come stay with me and North!"
Again both are shocked but this time by Jacks statement, "W-we couldn't just impose like that," Stein comments.
Jack chuckles, "Don't worry, there is plenty of room and you two are family now."
"B-but would North be okay with it?" Alice questions with worry on her face.
"Probably but I can ask right now if you want."
Stein shakes his head, "Isn't he sleeping right now, it is like one in the morning."
Jack crosses his arms, "True," then he flies and does a flip with a grin, "So, how about you two sleep over in my room for tonight till I ask North?!"
Alice and Stein look at each other unsure.
"Come on it would be my first ever sleep over, it'll be fun."
Stein shrugs and soon Alice does the same, "Okay," they say at the same time and they take off with Jack toward Santoff Claussen.
"Are you two warm enough?" Jack asks as he looks to both sides of his bed.
After defeating Pitch the first time North insisted that Jack come and live with him instead of the lake he was staying at, he had even given Jack his own room and furniture. It was great and Jack couldn't thank North enough for it all.
"Yes," Alice replies from the left of Jack's bed, while Stein makes a noise from the other side.
"Good. Night guys," Jack says as he turns of the light in his room.
"Night Jack," both say at the same time and soon all are fast asleep having pleasant dreams thanks to Sandy.
