One to my second chapter! Ya! Thanks for the reviews peeps!
North and Jack entered swiftly through the north poles gates, a trail of bone-chilling water streamed behind them. Tooth, who happened to be there at the moment glanced at the drenched guardians, question in her violet eyes. "What in the world happened to you both?" she asked.
"North took me out on a training session. In the middle of a rainstorm." Jack grunted.
"Really? Why didn't you just change the weather? I thought you could do that" Tooth wondered. In return Jack gave her an annoyed look and headed towards the direction of his room. "I'm going to dry my clothes" Jack muttered. Watching as the young boy closed his bedroom door Tooth gave North a questioning look. "What was that all about?" she asked.
"I guess it's the teenage hormones kicking in." North replied. Tooth fluttered over to North and took one of her small, delicate fingers and felt his soaked coat. "Woah, North! You better get into some dry clothes before you get into a hypothermia state and if you're immortal, you'll be in it for quite a while." Tooth advised, waving her hand to signify her mini-fairies to take Norths cape off. "That's very nice of you Tooth." thanked North. Meanwhile, back in Jack's room, Jack had taken of his blue sweater and white undershirt and hung it outside. Hopefully his strong gusts of wind would dry his clothes in a couple of minutes. He placed his precious staff next to his bed, he plopped onto it, let out a long relieving sigh and brought his frost-bitten blanket over his slender body. His mind was still repeating today's interesting new information he had received during his brief time outside with North. Great, more work time instead of fun time he thought. Closing his eyes, he breathed in his few moments of privacy. Exhaling his moments, he realized he should be getting dressed; North would probably want him to discuss about tomorrow's "training".
Jack used a lazy gust of wind to open his oak wood bedroom door and dragged himself out of the room, his feet barely lifting of the floor. Once he reached the main room he saw that Tooth, Sandy and Bunny were there as if they were waiting for him and North. "Hey guys, want to tell me why you're here?" Jack asked.
"Of course he wouldn't know. I still don't why we asked him to be a guardian." Bunny snorted with the same annoyed tone. Jack gave Bunny a strong glare, but quickly gave his attention to Tooth who was answering his question. "North called us here before you two went on your little adventure in the rain, but I don't know what for." answered Tooth. Bunny gave a little smirk when he heard Tooth say "adventure" which ended up with Jack blazing with anger. "Hey! what are you laughing at Kangaroo! I don't see your fur drenched with water!" Jack growled.
"Kangaroo?! How many times have I told y-" Bunny was interrupted by an impatient snort.
North stood with his beefy arms latched onto his waist, his eye brows bent down like the movable parts on a pin ball table. "How many times have I told both of you to stop you're bickering! It's giving me a headache!" North scolded. Bunny sat down, muttering curses under his breath. Giving both of them a glare North cleared his voice and began to speak. "Attention everyone! I have brought you here because I have made an important decision." said North. Tooth, Jack and Sandy all exchanged questioning glances as North continued. "When Pitch had attacked the children of the world, alone we could have never have beaten him. Luckily Man in Moon had lead us to Jack and we brought Pitch to his knees." North looked at Jack and gave him a brief nod of gratitude. "Where is this going, mate?" Bunny asked.
"I think we should all gather here, every day and train. If we work on our skills we can become stronger, our bond will also become stronger! So what do you say?" North finished. The room was greeted with a dead silence, which was then interrupted by Bunny's outburst. "Training!? Every single day with that brat!?" Bunny pointed at Jack. "You've got to be kidding mate!" Bunny protested. The room erupted with yells of protest and worried statements. Jack clenched his fists and glared at the rabbit. How dare he called him a brat! "You know what! It's not only you that's annoyed by North's sudden change in things! I'm tired of you not accepting me!" Jack screeched. Slicing his staff an inch away from Bunny, he turned the Pooka into a large block of ice, leaving his head to see his reaction. "What was that for!" Bunny exclaimed. Lifting his staff, he began to freeze Bunny's ears together, but was stopped by an ear-splitting yell.
"Enough!"
Jack and the guardians froze, he had never seen North so ill-tempered before. "Are you all mad! I just asked if we could train daily. Jack unfreeze Bunny right now!" North stomped. Jack obediently unfroze Bunny, then hid himself in his hood. "Good, now one at a time tell me what you think. Tooth, you start."
"Well, North I don't think this is going to work for me. You know I have to work every single day, gathering children's teeth and ordering around my fairies. I just don't have the time to train." said Tooth.
"Well, you could put one of your fairies in charge. Could that work?". North asked.
"I guess so. Give me some time to think." she replied.
"Okay. Sandy, your next." North looked at the golden sanded man. Sandy replied with a disagreeing shake and a sand picture of kids sleeping soundly , their minds filled with sweet dreams.
"The training isn't going to take all night Sandy, just an hour or two a day and that's it." North said. Sandy nodded in agreement as North asked Bunny what he thought. "Your kidding right!? My skills are already in tip top shape so I don't need more training. It's just a waste of my time." Bunny huffed.
"Tell you what Bunny, If you do this you can learn everything about Jack, his strengths and especially his weaknesses. You could get your rightful revenge if you know where and when to strike" North bargained. Jack's eyes widened with surprise and anger, his weakness? He didn't have any weaknesses and why would North bargain, with Bunny having revenge on him? "Hey! I'm right here you know!" Jack stated.
"I guess that could be useful, alright I'm in mate" Bunny replied. North clapped his hands together and a grin spread across his face. "Great! Everyone's coming! we'll start tomorrow!" North smiled. "Hey! What about me! Don't I get a say in this?" Jack protested.
"You already agreed when we were outside, Jack. Okay everyone! Meet here tomorrow at noon sharp! Don't be late." North said. Letting out a grunt, Jack stomped back into his room and slammed the door behind him. Tomorrow is going to be one wild ride he thought.
