I'm sorry for the late chapter, I've been busy with school and volleyball. Special thanks to Guest, KikaKat1O1 and IAmBehindYou for reviewing and I hope you enjoy the newest chapter.


It was a week after his encounter with Cupid and Jack Frost was sitting at a meeting rather bored. He was sitting down at a circular table and day-dreamed as North talked to the three of them (it was night and Sandy was off making children have pleasant dreams.) It only took a few words out of the large, Russian man's mouth before Jack tuned him out.

Jack let his mind wander around a few topics. It finally settled on the topic of Arrows. He wondered about the girl he met only once that reminded him of someone he once knew. Who the person was would always be just out of his reach and right before he could get it, it always fluttered away. She brought the love and passion and he brought fun and snow, its odd how different their jobs were. The one thing they both had in common was that they both loved their jobs. Arrows seemed to have a sense of humour, too.

Jack thought about his fellow spirit and day-dreamed for what seemed like a minute before he was brought back to reality by a poke that was placed rather roughly on his side. "Ow!" He yelled as he rubbed his rib that was now sore. He looked up to see all of his fellow Guardians looking at him. And they all looked rather annoyed.

He could feel the blush form on his face all the way down his neck and he knew he must of been as blue as the evening sky. He cleared his throat to try to make the feeling of embarrassment go away before he spoke.

"Sorry, what was the question?" He was answered with an eye roll from the E. Aster Bunnymund and everyone else just sighed.

"There wasn't a question, snowflake! I swear, 'ery time we try to have a meeting, 'is one 'ere messes it up!" Aster said in his thick Australian accent as he pointed a finger at the youngest of the Guardians rather accusingly.

"Now, now Bunny, Jack is probably just a little bit confused." Tooth said as she put a calming hand on the oversized rodents fore-arm. He calmed down instantly at her touch.

Then she turned to him with a look of worry on her face. "We were discussing what we would do if Pitch tries to over throw us, again."

Jack just looked over at the group of ancient Guardians. "I think we should go check up on him to make sure that he isn't trying to escape. 'Cause we don't know how he is and we haven't checked up on him for a few months."

North gave him a look of approval and got out of his chair with a scraping sound. "Well then! One of you vill go to Pitch's lair and see vat he is doing. Jack, vould you like to go?" He said it in his thick accent that Jack barely understood him. North's accent would often get thicker whenever he got a little worried. He was probably worried if Pitch was doing anything bad.

Jack shrugged. "Sure, why not." He got up from the table and grabbed his Shepard's hood and was about to leave when he was stopped by Toothiana.

"Wait!" She yelled at him frantically. "You can't go alone! Someone has to go with you, it's too dangerous for you to go without someone else." Jack looked around and saw as the other Guardians nodded.

He let out an exasperated sigh and asked, "Okay, who's going to come with me then?" His fellow Guardians all avoided his gaze as they all said something along the lines of "I'm too busy, I can't"

Jack scoffed. " Who's going to go with me then. I don't suppose I can bring Jamie or any other mortal."

North spoke up almost immediately, "Why don't you bring another spirit? Most of them aren't that busy, ask one of them."

"Ya, You can ask one of them! They don't talk to us much, except at the semi-annual spirit meeting. You might as well go around and check out the other possible future Guardians." Tooth said excitedly. Great, now he was going to have to go, find another spirit, beg them to go to Pitch's lair and interact with them socially. He didn't like the idea but agreed to do it. And he knew just the spirit he was going to bring with him.

He flew out of a window and waved good bye to the Guardians. Jack laughed as the wind tossed him around and pretended to drop him. "Bring me to Arrows!" He yelled and the wind whisked him off to find her.

-line break-

It took Jack about ten minutes to find her. She was crouched down on top of the Eiffel Tower with her large angel wings folded into her back and her bow ready to fire. He looked to see who it was pointed at; he followed the line of fire and saw that it was aimed at a middle aged couple.

Jack watched as she let her arrow go and it exploded in a flash of gold. He could swear he could hear the faint laugh of a child before the wind carried it away.

"Hi." Jack said and Arrows jumped a little at the sudden noise. She twirled around and aimed her bow and arrow at Jack who threw his hands up in surrender. "What? You've never talked to someone before?" Jack asked and she lowered her bow.

"Oh, its just you." She deadpanned and put her bow down. "What do you want, Jokul? Can't you see I'm a little busy." Arrows could see that he didn't fully comprehend why she called him 'Jokul.'

"Really, Jack? Really? You don't even know who 'Jokul' is, do you?" Jack shook his head, confused.

"No I really don't." He said it with almost a sad voice. Arrows let out a little chuckle and started to explain to her fellow spirit who he was.

"I guess you don't read much, do you? Well, Jokul Frosti is Jack Frost, you. He – I mean, you, are from Norse folktale, it's how the Vikings explained to the kids about winter." After she was done explaining, Jack looked her in the eye and he could see the intelligence. And then a smile crept onto hs face.

"Whats your story then, eh? If I have a story, then you ought to have one, too" He looked at her and she tensed with each word he said.

After a few moments she let out a sigh and begun her tale. "Well, where should i start? The ancient Greeks were amazing people and they believed in the gods of Mount Olympus. There were twelve of them, all immortal, but you probably already know about them. Anyways, Aphrodite, the goddess of love and Ares, the god of war had a child. That child was Eros, and the Greeks adapted their myths to make their own myths and for them, I was named Cupid."

Arrows finished her tale and looked up at Jack who had a look of pure shock on his face. It took him a few moments to register what her tale was and then he croaked out a response. "Your parents are gods and you've been around for thousands of years?"

She let out a little giggle and started playing with her bow. "Well, no. I just carry Cupid's legacy, spreading love. He was the god of desire, and he would make people fall in love like I do. I've actually only been around for a few decades."

Jack looked her up and down. So, she used to be a mortal like him and the other Guardians. He had one more question to ask her.

"Those people that you just shot, you weren't making them fall in love, were you?" Jack asked and Arrows' face lit up in a wide smile.

"I was giving them a baby." was all she said. It made Jack more curious and he wanted to know more.

"What do you mean you were 'giving them a baby?' Don't humans have to -you know- to get a baby?" Arrows couldn't help but laugh when he mentioned what humans had to do to have a baby.

After she was done laughing (which was a long time) she stood up straight and smiled at him. "Well, actually, I bring children, in a way. You see, I give them a sort of blessing, that allows them to have a child. I keep the world from becoming overpopulated." her smile seemed to shine brighter as she said the last sentence and Jack couldn't help but smile. The girl in front of him, single-handedly kept the mortals from overpopulating the Earth. He found it fascinating.

The stood in silence for awhile before Arrows spoke up. "Why did you come here? I mean, Paris has lots of snow already, they hardly need more."

"Crap." Jack quietly cursed under his breathe. "I came to ask you if you wanted to come with me somewhere."

"Well it depends where." Arrows said, still smiling.

"To check on Pitch, its been a little while since I last did and the Guardians don't think I should go alone but their all too busy. So, do you want to come. I mean, I know you have a really important job to do and everything, so if you can't its okay. I'll just-" Jack was cut off by Arrows' gentle laugh. "What?" he asked.

"You were rambling, and of course I'll go with you. A little adventure could be fun." She swung her bow over her shoulder and grabbed Jack's hand. Together, they jumped off the building, but before they hit the ground, Arrows flapped her wings and Jack summoned the wind and tgether they started on their way to Pitch's lair.
