Hello. Hope you liked the first chapter. I was thinking of doing a couple of one-shots before starting the actual plot, and I would be happy of hearing a couple of your ideas but please no slash. Hope you enjoy the next chapter.
Chapter 2 :One heck of a morning
This is the best day ever that what Jack thought as he leaped through the air performing maneuvers with his staff that would put surfers , skateboarders, and snowboarders to shame. Why is it the best day? Because he is now a guardian ,and for the first time had kids who believe in him. In fact he was visiting those believers right now. Oh how he can't wait to get started. He planned a whole day of snowball fighting and epic sleigh rides maybe even take a few of them to fly with the wind I mean who dislike to fly except bunny of course but his opinion is not important.
Anyway , Jack just reached his home town Burges, and there he saw him Jamie and his friends playing outside. Jack landed quietly behind them and slowly formed a snowball and thrown it . It had smacked Jameie at the back of his head . It seems that he put quite the strength in it as Jamie fell square on his face . Jack quickly made his way to Jamie to make sure he is okay.
"Sorry, it seems I thrown the ball hard ,you okay kiddo?"
"Oh Jack, yeah I'm okay don't worry about it , But since you've mention it"
Smaaaack, Jack was snowballed right at the face, then suddenly he heard Jamie yell "get him" and all the kids joined him at throwing snowballs at Jack (poor Jack)
"Hahahaha, okay okay I admit defeat you win hehehe"
All the kids laughed as Jack stood up and shook the snow out of himself" you're a sneaky devil you know that Jamie?"
"Well I learned from the best, you can't imagine how sneaky that guy is" and all of them laughed.
"Hey let play hide and seek" one of the kid suggested
"Yeah why not", and it was decided that Jack would be the seeker. As he searched , Jack spotted Cupcake and sneaked behind her . when he was close enough he whispered "boo" and caused cupcake to jump from her spot and accidentally elbowed Jack in the stomach.
Suddenly Jack jolted awake and so himself back at North's and slowly remembered the past few days .
he realized that he was sleeping on North's sleigh' and When he looked closely he saw North and Bunny sleeping across him. North was in a sitting position , his head backwards , and was snoring loudly. Apparently he his dreaming of candy canes again. Bunny however , was lying on his stomach and dreaming about carrots –predictable- his whole body was covered by blankets (yes more than one),and even with all those blankets you can clearly see his tail twitching. Jack had to control himself not to laugh at the site.
Suddenly Jake became aware of something moving at his lap , he looked down he saw it was sandy looking at him with apologic eyes. His movement caused him to accidently elbow jack hard at stomach and wake him up from his sleep. Apparently jack understood his apology and said" It's okay sandy no harm done" he though for a moment then asked "did we all really sleep in north's sleigh?". Sandy nodded yes .
"Wow, I don't see tooth, did she wake up early?" Sandy looked at jack with a smirk and gestured with his head to Jack's right . It was then that he noticed the weight on his right shoulder. Tooth's head was lying at Jack's shoulder, he was too distracted by the other three that he didn't notice tooth next to him. Jack's felt himself blush deeply then his gaze fell back on Sandy, who was looking at him teasingly.
"Shut up Sandy" . Sandy have a look that translated into "I am not talking"
"You know what I mean" Jake replied "whatever, you're going out to spread dreams?" Sandy nodded and a couple of picture appeared above his head asking "what about you?"
"I'm going to explore the workshop, because of the pitch fiasco I didn't see it properly". Sandy stared at him. "what I'm not going to break any thing Sandy! Stop staring at me like that"
Sandy merely smiled and shook his head . He loved to tease the boy as much as he adored him . He and Jack had been friends for a long time . Their boned is like that of a close uncle/nephew of sorts. Jack was one of the few people who have no problem at understanding Sandy's charade game. The only reason Jack didn't understand sandy when he was brought to the pole to be named a guardian is because sandy was so excited to tell him and his images appeared too fast for Jack to understand.
Also if they didn't play charades , they could always communicate by ASL(American Sign Language ), Which the rest of the guardians didn't know how to speak. But sadly, due to their responsibilities they couldn't meet each other all the time. In fact, the last time they both met each other physically was 50 years ago
Sandy hovered in the air , while Jack slowly rose up and carefully lied tooth's head on a pillow and covered her with a blanket . Baby tooth almost fell from his neck , but he caught her in time and lied her on the pillow right to tooth's head , so BT would be warmed up from tooth's head feathers.
Jack got off of the sleigh and looked at sandy who told him to "stay out of trouble"
"Come Sandy was I ever bad?!"
Sandy nodded yes and started counting . "Sandy that was a rhetorical question". The golden guardian laughed silently, shook his head in amusement and waved goodbye to Jack as he reached for a window . Jack watched Sandy leave then he headed for the door that lead to the workshop.
The workshop was ever thing Jack imaged and was worth all these years he tried to sneak in to the pole. He looked with childish wonder at all the toys , while ignoring the yetis' stares and trying not to step on the elves. Suddenly he bumped into something big and furry . when he looked up he so it was his old friend , Phil.
"Hey good morning Phil, How are you?"
Phil raised his brow at Jack and asked what was he doing here in yettish.
"Come on Phil, you know I always wanted to see this place please let me explore.
Phil sighed and gestured Jack to follow him, he was going to give the winter spirit a tour; the kid earned it . Jack couldn't contain a "whoooop" and followed Phil. The yeti looked with amusement at Jack's reaction ; the spirit was at every sense a child , but sometimes he would act like an old soul that lived for eons , and his eyes sometimes reflected wisdom and experience that a child like him shouldn't have. It made him question Jack "Is he what he appears to be?" or "is there something the boy is hiding?"
Phil was interrupted from his thoughts by Jack's voice who kept asking him about the toys and how did they design them ; when was explaining when suddenly he was interrupted by Jack again
"Phil, can we do this at another time , something came up and I need to go'
Phil looked at the spirit and saw those eyes again , the eyes that looked far too old for a young spirit like Jack to have, but the yeti nodded in understanding and told Jack they could do this at another time.
"thanks Phil, if the others woke up and asked, tell them is about my winter duties okay" then he made his way to the window and shot through the air.
Phil looked at him from behind and couldn't help but think that Jack is more than what he appears.
