Chapter 6

Introductions

She had been nothing but trouble from the moment she woke up Jack had not been there he had left to go to the bathroom for the first time in hours as soon, but as he left she had started to stir, Tooth and Sandy who were with Jack watching the girl, tried to call him back but apparently he had flown fast he must have really had to go. Now they were trying to calm the girl that was in hysterics at the fact that no one here was someone she knew and that they had just been watching her sleep it was creepy.

"Where's Jack?" her voice breaking as it got higher pitched.

"Aww, don't worry sweetie he'll be right back he just went to the bathroom" Tooth says looking at her like she was a newborn kitten, it kind of freaked her out and by kind of freaked out I mean terrified she was out of the bed in a moment despite the burning pain thru her body and moving toward the staff in the corner of the room. Her staff, only thing she actually owned.

Jack was feeling refreshed after using the bathroom and was in no hurry to return to the dull white room. As usual, thoughts crept their way into Jacks mind what if she had woken up? He started to hurry down the hall just to hear the girl yell "LET GO OF ME!" He ran the rest of the way down the hall to the room they had placed her in after bandaging her wounds. There she was being held upside down by a stream of Sandy's golden dream sand her staff that he had fixed lying on the ground just out of reach her arms crossed over her chest hair hanging down it was really quite comical as she looked at the small guardian holding her up "Fine, please put me down I promise I won't try to jump out the window again" Sandy made a quick motion of her staff "Or shoot at yo- JACK!" she calls out very much exited to see him a smile gracing her upside-down face. All he can do is smile before laughing so hard he falls to the floor her smile fades "What's so funny?" her question only making Jack laugh louder. Sandy puts the squirming girl down and leans her staff back ageist the wall.

Jack slowly gets off the floor still chuckling "Oh, it's nothing" still chuckling as he puts his arms around her in a brief hug he was getting better at this whole contact thing he only flinched a little when he hugged her but she had too because of their injuries. Tooth flies in the room with North and Bunny in tow.

"AH, now that you are rested it is time for proper introductions I am Nickolas St North but you can just call me North" His grin reaching his eyes as he starts to introduce the other guardians while leading the younger teen back to bed "Well you seem to know Jack Frost over there" Pointing toward him "This is E. Aster Bunnymund you may call him Bunny" she giggles and Tooth nudges Sandy and whispers awe again to him "That one over there is Toothiana and you can call her-"

"Wait let me guess, Tooth?" it was quite funny the other guardians letting out small laughs before putting a hand over their mouth or smiling wide.

"Why yes how did you know?" he laughs at her expression "over there is Sanderson" he winks at her as they finally reach the bed and she gets in. "So what can we call you?"

"Jussnowin" she says her name a little too fast for most of the guardians to catch

"I don't think we are, north are we?" says bunny chuckling

"Just snowed in, really isn't a name" tooth puts quietly.

Jack just laughs again "Is that your name?" he counties laughing sandy stays still not flashing them what he's thinking

"Bunny, Jack, Tooth, your being incredibly rude" north scolds them siting in the bed and not too happy about it either she was staring at them not impressed "Would you mind repeating your name for them please" he sounded so nice so she gave in.

"Jessica Snodyn" se says slowly "you can call me Jess or Ordinem" the confusion on their faces stops her "what's wrong?"

"Well what does that mean? North do you know?"

"No Bunny I don't, Jess what dose ordim mean?"

"Ordinem" she corrects "it means order"

"Why would we call you, order?"

"I'm the spirit of order, of course"

"I thought you were some kind of winter spirit like Jack" Bunny calls "after all you made it snow when you hugged him the first time"

"Oh ya, that's just something that happens when I'm happy or sad" she is smiling at them Tooth comes over and puts a light hand on her cold one.

"I knew the last spirit of order, but she was warm not ice cold." Suddenly the moon is very bright in the window even thou the suns warmth would still shin down for a few more hours they all crowd around the window to see what MIM would say Jess just sits back and closes her eyes.

"Pleased to see you have all finally met"

"Manny why are you here?"

"Do I need an excuse to talk to my guardians?"

"Well no" North admits

"that's better, now about Ordinem you see when Jack accidently interfered with her creation and she fell on and thru the ice she accidently gained her original powers of order and also powers similar to frost's, winter and order in one form, I used another power to try to supress the winter power but the power of order was too strong and it had already melded with the equally strong power of winter, when they came in contact with the power of 'alii' it was devastating but somehow it supressed all of the powers of winter and 'alii' and some of order she can tap into ability's that are unique to these powers but cannot use them consciously." The guardians were speechless. none of them and moved or breathed when he had started talking about her.

"What does that mean Manny? Will she be okay?"

"I am no longer certain. That's why I arranged for you to meet she needs to be protected, in the not to distance future I saw a great evil try to control her not just her vast powers of winter and order but they found out about the how much of 'alii' I had given to her to supress them, let me tell you this it is a substantial amount. Whoever it is somehow finds out I cannot see who, but it is a spirit you have come in contact with recently please protect the little one there are future events that will require her." he speaks slowly to them.

"How? When? Why?" were questions being thrown around they were obvious to the girl now exploring the room thinking they were having a silent council.

"Soon"

"Can't you tell us more?"

"I have to go goodbye take good care of Ordinem"

"N-north what is 'alii'?"Tooth questions looking at the beautiful teen across the room now occupied with the dream sand and snow dolphins swimming around on the blank walls.

"'alii' is old a power or ability, even older than me or the world, only Manny has 'alii' and he has not given it out to spirits in a long time" Jack and Sandy join them Jessie is currently occupied with a few sand and snow creations.

"What does it mean? And why?" Jack, Tooth and Bunny ask.

" Alii is Latin for others" they are confused their faces showing it " power of 'alii' , power of others" they catch on to what he is saying.

"You mean that she could use our powers?" Jack says nervously not wishing that on anyone.

"not just that any special ability you have like my wonder she would see the wonder in everything too, but there is a drawback she would have to touch you to be able to do it and she can only keep it going as long as she is touching you" everyone gasps that could be devastating. "Manny said the power is blocked but someone would try to unblock it."

The other Guardians caught on no matter what they had to protect the younger immortal teen.

Pitch Black was standing in the shadows not two feet away from the window, he had planned on coming back for the white haired girl, but now, now a plan is forming in his mind if that girl really had 'alii' then he would stop at nothing to get her. Pitch disappears going back to his lair to finalize the details of his plan.

Author's note: Oh snap! What is pitch planning? I think I'll do a little pitch part I really like writing him he is such a prick REVIEW!
