Chapter 4 : the calm before the storm
Jack was in Greenland giving its last snowfall, after his talk with his siblings the land called him . this a thing about seasonal beings only a few know. A certain country or land calls the spirits at their respected seasons; in Jack's case winter. The spirit would feel mild pain in his chest, which is called by the seasonal 'the request' because the land requests specific things of the spirits. Greenland asked for a last snowfall before spring arrived .
He like to take his time when he's doing his job , even though he doesn't consider it as such , to him is more like a game in which he challenges himself by thinking of different frost snowflake designs, no two are the same, and most importantly have fun while you're working , but never forget the importance of your work. That's what mother have taught him.
By the time he was done, the sun was setting behind a mountain. Her fire like rays were reflected off the snow in such a way , any who have seen it would have been immediately mesmerized.
Satisfied with his work, Jack decided to have fun with the locals, making thin ice at the ground where the poor victims would slip and fall, of freezing water fountains some kids had their toungs stuck to the frozen ice, he was not in the top of the naughty list for nothing . his mind drifted to his earlier meeting. Punzie was right, they will be ready and do whatever it takes to protect the balance.
Golden lights caught his eyes , it must be late , Sandy's dream sand is already here. He followed the gold sand up to where Sandy's cloud is, Sandy noticed him and smiled , mentioned for Jack to sit next to him.
The spirit of winter liked to hang around Sandy and see him doing his work. He always thought of it as beautiful and creative. A question mark appeared above Sandy , asking him what was he doing here?
"You know, same old same old , just gave Greenland it's last snowfall and messed a little with the locals" Jack answer cheekily.
The Sandman silently giggled, Jack's antics always amused him, but he does scold him when his jokes get overboard.
"So uncle, I heard you told the others the news of me being a guardian, you like to gossip don't you?, I wanted to tell them myself"
Sandy faked a hurt and guilty expression and proceeded to laugh silently. 'Oh, you caught me red handed' signed Sandy 'I'm sorry I was excited, furthermore, it's been a while since I saw the rest'
"it's okay, you know I can't stay mad of you" , then his expression become serious "the others and I , talked about it" Sandy looked at him with sad eyes "I can't help but worry, this is not like the battle with Pitch, the 'Olarak' is this year, what if we fail" sighed Jack "What if we failed mother, father and everyone"
Sandy looked at him with determent angry eyes , reached his hand to jacks chin to at him in the eyes and used his sand to write 'don't give up or lose hope Jackson, the battle didn't start, we didn't fail and we WON'T, you are NOT alone in this, ALL of us are with you, me, Rapunzel, Merida, Hiccup, ….. and even your parents, we believe in you so believe in as' then he hugged Jack
Jack smiled at the embrace , Sandy was right, he is not alone he has his family with him, what would his parents say if they saw him give up before trying?, they will win this for sure.
Jack pulled out of the embrace first "your right Sandy, sorry I was just being an idiot"
'Well, it's not the first time' sighed Sandy
"Hey" said Jack , and playfully pushed Sandy, It was then they noticed the northern light, Sandy had an exclamation mark on top of his head and looked worried, Jack looked at him with confusion. "What's wrong Sandy?"
'The northern light are north's way of summoning the guardians, mostly during times of crisis, I wander if something happened?'
"Well let's go find out then, it's not like we'll know anything by sitting here" said Jack
Sandy formed an airplane with two seats and mentioned for Jack to hop in. After Jack sat down , they immediately made their way to North's .
Break….
North activated the northern light in order to call the other guardians for his big epic party, even though he should only have used them in case of threat. Bunny was at the pole with North, and when he had seen him activate the lights he started to scold him.
"north's ya dill' ya should only use the lights in case of emergencies"
"but it iz an emergency, the others would have been late for party"
"then why didn't you send one of your yetis to call them!?"replied Bunny angrily "the others might think that something is wrong North, plus we never told frostbite that the lights are our way of summoning!"
North looked a bit embarrassed, just as he was about to reply tooth came rushing in,
"I saw the light, I came as fast as I could, is something wrong?, is it pitch again?
"Relax Sheila, the Gumby just wanted to call you for his stupid party"
"North you can't use the lights for something like this!"
"But it was emergency toothy, you were for part"
Before Tooth could scold North anymore Sandy and Jack came flying in and landed across the three guardians
"is every thin all right guy?" asked jack
"everything's o'right frostbite, it's just north being irresponsible"
Sandy folded his arms and looked at north with disapproving eyes "I'm sorry Sandy I just didn't want you to be late for party" replied North and looked at his fellow guardians with sad puppy dog eyes
"Party?, what Party?" both Jack and Sandy asked(Sandy had a question mark above his head"
"you both left before you were informed, but I plan big party to celebrate our success" boomed North
Jack and Sandy looked at each other. "sounds cool" said Jack
'Pun intended' asked sandy
"hehehe, no, not really"
"wat not real" asked north
"Sandy just asked me a question" replied Jack "are we getting this party started or what"
"let party begin" said north
Bunny rolled his eyes at North childishness , tooth squealed, Sandy smiled warmly and immediately fetched an eggnog much once he saw the yetis coming in . food of every type were on the table , all of the guardians went and sat down , Jack looked at the food ,but Phil assured him that it is cold enough , he know the winter spirit disliked heat, he made it special for him.
Jack was actually enjoying himself, North really knows how to throw a party, she wished his siblings were with him. But they can't stay in one place for too long , there temperatures and seasons would clash and would lead to an imbalance. It's really sad they are a family but because of what they are they can't act like one all the time , the only place where they could meet with no problems is 'hemostaz' their mother and father's realm, but even then they can meet all the time due to our responsibilities.
The last time Jack saw any of his siblings prior to there meeting was decades ago, and he really do miss them and he knows they miss him as well.
Jack was interupted from his thoughts by Bunny's and north's bickaring about the best holiday, tooth was trying to calm both of them down , Sandy looked looked at them quietly while sipping eggnog.
"Do they always do that ?" Jack asked Sandy
Sandy gave him a look that translated into 'all thr time'
"i am telling you chrismas iz better, no matter what you do to make eggs look nice they are still eggs"
"don't you dare insult my googie mate"
"boys stop it, your suppose to protect childeren not act like them"
"He started it sheila"
"don't put blame on me rabbit, you are just jealouse"
"North your making it worse"
Jack and Sandy laughed in the backround , then jack looked down at Sandy "You know uncle, i think i'm going to enjoy being a part of the team. Sandy smile at him
Break...
Somewhere in the world where no one dares to approuch a dark figure sealed in a prison it's body dark his eye were red blood orbs. İn front of him stood a much smaller figure.
"Finally after mellenias The 'olarak' is upon us only a few months away" said the dark figure "During this time the keys will awaken. Find them before the 'olarak' approuches and use them to release me while the sael is at it's weakest, find their bodies, bring them to me , as they are also impartant for my freedom as well"
"As you command my lord" replied a sinister feminine voice "i shall search high and low for what you need, i shall not fail you"
"Indeed you wont becuase if you do fail me , death will be merciful fate for you, do you understand"
"i understand"
"what was our friend's answer?"
"he will be more that happy to aid you"
"Birilliant indeed"
