Jack Frost dreamed he was walking barefoot on a beach, watching dolphins jumping in the nearby waves. The dolphins barked and squealed at him – one even waving a flipper. Dolphins always saw Jack.
He was about to ice-skate over the waves to them, when his feet pounded on something very soft and squishy.
He looked down, the most impossible flowers had sprung up under his feet. They looked like lilies, but they were of many colors, and the petals under his toes seemed to wipe away the grittiness of the sandy beach. The flowers also had no leaves.
He reached down and plucked one by the stem. There were no traces of it ever having leaves. That could only mean one thing: the flower crumbled to sand in his hands as he yelled, "I said NO FLOWERS, Sandy!"
Jack awoke on a tree branch and felt pine needles tickling his face. He was about to fall back asleep when he saw bright splotches over the pond.
He leaped out of his tree and was at the pond in a second.
The pond was overflowing with flowers. Poinsettias and holly wreathed the bank, giant four foot wide rainforest flowers you could trip over littered the ice, small plain flowers that Jack knew came from vegetables and fruits were scattered in between, and in the center was a mountain of baby's breath, clovers, golden roses, bluebonnets, and every special Easter flower rising further and further up in a tower that looked like a kaleidoscope.
He waded through the tiny flowers covering the ice and looked in vain for a note in the kaleidoscope mountain, but as he pulled aside the outer flowers he found another layer underneath, which was just as intricate. There was no doubt the memorial was left by the Guardians.
He slipped a hand over his forehead, "What am I going to do?"
Someone was laughing behind him. He turned quickly, "Bunny if you've – Jamie?"
"The Guardians said to tell you…" Jamie said peering over a giant rainforest flower. "That, you're always welcome and… Oh yeah!" Jamie dragged a stick out from the mess of flowers. It was Jack's shepherd's crook – still in one piece.
"Thank you." Jack said.
Jamie looked at Jack skeptically.
"You are real?" Jamie asked.
"Yes, of course. You know I'm real." Jack said, shifting weight between his feet.
"But you died." Jamie said accusingly, he had heard what Pitch had said.
"To save my sister." Jack crouched down on eye level. "The Man in the Moon brought me back. I'm alive now."
"But what if you die again!" Jamie grabbed Jack's wrist.
"I'd be fine. I'd get to see my family again."
"But what about me? I thought that if I believed that you, North, Bunny, Tooth, and Sandy exist that you guys always will!"
Jack could feel the wind rustling his hair. "Jamie, why do you like us?"
"Well, you bring presents…duh! Okay, okay, because you guys are fun. And you fought Pitch!"
"Hey, you fought him too."
"Yeah, but what if you – you know – die again. Then who could stop Pitch?" Jamie shuddered.
"Well, God."
"God? You believe in God?"
"You think we're all here by accident, kiddo?"
"Can you see God?" Jamie asked, "If you believe?"
"God is so big and so good. If God was standing right here, we couldn't look at Him because He would be shining so much." Jack said.
"Wow." Jamie looked awed. "Wait – then how do you know God exists?"
"Because of Pitch and evil people like him. We want things to be fair. We want evil to be stopped. But if there was no God, why would anything matter? Why would we feel that way?"
"Hmm." Jamie said, staring at the flowers in the pond.
"Tell you what," Jack grabbed some flowers. "Take these to you mom. Tell the other kids they can get some for their moms. I really don't know what do with these flowers."
Jamie agreed and ran off. Jack Frost looked at the Guardian's memorial to him. Flowers waved at him in the wind. Why did the Guardians have to get so worked up about him drowning three-hundred years ago?
Still, they did care.
THE END.
