Guest, Of course I'll answer your question! I answer everybody's! Don't worry about spelling. And that's a good idea! I'll be sure to add it to my list!
ShawnSpencerFan, Yes. He wont be waiting in worry though. Maybe. Yes. Jack and Eddy are 9 and 10(Jack will be 10 in the next chapter)
Sarahh, I like it but I can't picture Jack using his looks as a chance to get what he wants. More of him thinking he needs to do everything by himself. Maybe I'll use in another story.
CatLover2906, YES, ALL OF THOSE THINGS! LET ME LOVE YOU!

(November 21, 1704)
Snow covered the small town. People wrapped in warm clothing hurried down the streets, hurrying home or to work. One brown haired boy shoved his way up the street, trying to get to the edge of the town.
Jack was older. He looked to be about 9 or 10 and his hair was longer. He was running through the snow looking both excited and nervous. He fell a few times getting wet and cold before making it to his home.
His home was not very big, with only one window and two rooms. However, it was very cozy and beautiful in all seasons.
"Your house is beautiful Jack," Tooth said
Jack quietly opened the door and shut it. He took of his boots, coat, and scarf before hanging his coat and scarf. Elbe appeared at his feet and he picked her up. He slowly walks towards the only other door in the house.
He opened it and peeked in to see his mom propped up by pillows on the bed and his father sitting next to her, crisis cross applesauce as his teacher says. Richard was holding a small bundle.
"Who's that?" Santa and Tooth asked at the same time
"Hey, little snowball, Elbe," Mary, whispered tiredly, smiling.
Jack slowly walked towards the bed before climbing into it. He crawled in between his parents before looking at the bundle.
Inside was a little girl with a small face, rosy cheeks, bright brown eyes, and freckles. Small strands of brown hair came from the top of her head. Jack stared at her before reaching a hand out toward her. A small chubby hand came from the blanket and wrapped around his middle finger.
Jack's face lit up and a huge smile blossomed, "What's her name?"
'She's adorable!" Tooth said flying close to the screen
"Sit back down, Tooth!" North said laughing
Tooth blushed and apologized before sitting down again.
"We wanted to wait for you." Richard said smiling softly
"What do you-" Mary began
"Pippa!" Jack shouted.
"Pippa?" Mary and Richard said at the same time
"Pippa." Jack confirmed, nodding.
Mary and Richard looked at their new child and smiled fondly.
"Welcome to the Overland family Pippa." Richard said
"Your sister is adorable Jack," Tooth exclaimed
"Of course she is," I said smirking "She is related to me."
We all laughed.
I was the first to stop laughing. Looking around at the senior guardians something occurred to me. Even though I lost my family and spent over 300 years alone, I had gained a new family. One just as good as my real one.
"Another one is on!" Bunny said
(December 8, 1704)
Screams.
Men shouting orders.
Fire.
Guns being fired.
"Jack! Eddy! Get Up!" Richard yelled.
"No." I whispered
Jack and Eddy sat up tiredly. There was a loud explosion outside which caused the boys to be wide-awake.
"Dad?"
"No time to explain Jack! Take Pippa and Eddy and go!" Richard yelled pulling them both up.
"But-"
"GO!" He yelled again putting Pippa in Jack's arms
"What is going on Jack?" North whispered
Jack and Eddy ran out the door to see there home on fire. Buildings were burning down and men, women, and children were running in different directions everywhere. Men in red suits were shooting guns and killing everyone.
"DAD!" Eddy yelling running into the smoke
"EDDY! Come back!' Jack yelled, stepping foreword before looking at Pippa.
Jack looked back up to where Eddy had disappeared. He shook his head and turned around, running into the forest. He ran for what felt like hours. During that time, Elbe had appeared and was running with him. Jack was one miles away from town before he collapsed. He looked around panting. Near was a bush he recognized to contain no living animals and nothing poisonous. He walked towards it and hid inside. Elbe crawled in after him. Jack unbuttoned the big jacket he slept in and put Pippa in before buttoning it back up until only Pippa's head showed. He lay down on his side, thankful it had not snowed, and Elbe curled close to both of them.
The screen went black.
"Jack?" Tooth asked worriedly
I did not answer but continued to stare at the screen as another one came on.
Jack was coming out of the forest. Pippa still in his jacket and Elbe following closely behind. Buildings were burnt down, animals and people were dead, some buildings were still standing but not much. As Jack walked further into town he saw people weeping over body's-dead body's he realized with horror- and people hugging. He saw Derek's mother hugging him and the twins close while crying.
Jack looked forward and came to a stop in shock. There in front of him was his father. His father propped against a crumpling wall. His fathers blood coming out of his body. His father smiling at his mother as she cried. His father taking his last breath. His father, dead.
Review?
Edit-I was gonna have it where Eddy's mother was a sort of mother figure to him but nobody seems to like that idea. So daddy is dead instead. Happy?
