A.N. Hey Guys! So glad to be back! I mean it's only been a day, but whatever. So, if you couldn't tell, this is my first story I've actually posted. I'm not that great with grammar or spelling so any help I can get would be appreciated. This fic is mostly for me to improve my writing skills, and for me to mess with some of my favorite characters.
So, It's kind of a given that North invites Jack to live with him at the pole, and everyone else has a room for him too. Guess what this is about….
Yeah this whopper is split into 4 it's more than 3,000 words when you put all the chapters together.
Setting: It's happening about 9 months after the battle, and Jack hasn't really interacted with the others much.
Disclaimer: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you think I own RotG? HAHAHAHAHAHA.
The Birthday – Sandy's Castle (1 of 4)
He wasn't sure how they figured it out. Even he couldn't remember what day he was born. But somehow, maybe through North's lists or something, the Guardians had figured out when his birthday was.
It was just a normal day for Jack, snowball fights, blizzards, and general fun times. It was the end of January, and he was in the middle of bringing winter to the Northern Hemisphere. (No matter what the Easter Kangaroo said, He did have an important job!) He was over the U.S., Somewhere in the east. He was expecting to see people shoveling, plowing, and building snowmen. What he wasn't expecting to see was the Northern Lights. They could mean any of three things,
Pitch was back.
North wanted to get them together to throw a party.
The elves had gotten a hold of the caffeine again.
He really hoped it wasn't the last one. The last time that happened….. Well some things were better left unsaid. The most likely choice was the party option, and Jack really was busy, so he didn't have much time for parties. But, if Pitch was back…. Yeah, it would be best to go check.
With a yell to the wind, asking it to take him to the Pole, he was off.
He was expecting a lot of things, but being shoved into a sack -again- was not on the list. He wondered what he'd done to anger the yetis this time. It had been almost a month since the last time he had pranked them. But, they still could be mad. He didn't know why. Jack thought they looked good in pink.
So here he was again, stuck in a smelly sack being tossed through a portal. He idly wondered where the shimmering vortex was taking him.
Yes, it was a day of surprises.
Sandy's castle, the stuff of dreams. Well, made of dream sand anyways. Yup, the golden castle in the sky. A giant sand castle that is. Jack quickly pulled himself out of the red bag of terror, and grabbed his staff. Looking around, he thought that the yetis must have played a prank of some kind. He had never been here before, not many people had, considering that Sandy's home moved all the time and was especially hard to find.
It was then, as Jack took in the sights, that the guardian's plan was put into action. The winter spirit started as he detected movement in the corner of his eyes. As he readied his staff for action and turned, he was glad he didn't attack right away. It was just one of Sandy's dream dolphins. The marine animal chattered and Jack smiled. He loved these little guys. Dolphy, the creation's new name in Jack's head, turned and gestured with its head.
"You want me to follow you?" Jack voiced his confusion.
The dolphin nodded again and started to move away.
"Hey, wait for me!"
He quickly ran toward Dolphy. The animal seemed to smile, and started to move even faster.
"Hey, no wait, I'm coming!"
They were off, in a wild race. The two of them ran along hallways, through something that looked like a game room, and over a bridge. As they ran, Jack called on the wind to speed him along. He was quickly gaining on the dolphin, when the animal suddenly turned down a hall. Jack flew past the doorway, and quickly corrected himself. The dream sand creature was waiting at the end of the tunnel looking immensely pleased with itself.
"No fair! You cheated!"
The animal simply chattered and again nodded its head, this time toward a door. Jack walked toward it, and scrunched his eyebrows. The golden door was decorated with an intricate snowflake.
The bringer of winter hummed to himself. He was curious. Slowly, with encouragement from his new friend, he grasped the doorknob and opened the door.
Jack's jaw fell open. "No way," he whispered.
A golden room, fairly good-sized, stood before him, with an empty bookcase in one corner, a desk and chair in another. A giant window took up almost the entire right wall. The main feature of the room was the huge bed. Made of dream sand with giant pillows, and covers embossed with the Guardian logo, it took willpower to not go collapse into it and take a nap. Yet out of all the items in the room, the thing that drew Jack's eyes toward it was the wall above the bed. Yet another snowflake hung proudly there. Underneath in fancy cursive writing was his name - JACK FROST. A gasp escaped his lips. Quickly wanting to confirm his idea, he turned to Dolphy.
He tentatively asked "Is this for me?"
The chattering dolphin simply answered with a nod and a few back-flips.
His excitement growing Jack, yelled out, just in case Sandy could hear him, "This is awesome!"
Of course, that was exactly when he dropped down the rabbit hole.
