1 of 5 --or-- It Takes Time

by Shadow-StrikeRaven

A Series of related one-shots, 1000-10'000 words, based after the movie. With threats from Pitch, prank wars, special occasions, different spirits and a lot of discoveries about Jack and how he spent the last 300 years... (A Ninja? Really?) How are the Guardians adjusting to being a group of 5? No set pairings. Rated T for possibility of language and violence. Variety of genres.

55. Pitch? Perfect Parties

Okay, I honestly have no excuse for the delay, aside from the fact that there was meetings, birthdays, last minute calls for volunteering assistance, baby-sitting as various family members worked etc, coursework ready for college to start up again, coursework once college had started again, headaches, My Muse's impromptu holiday, more headaches, Illness and... Wait, I think that was a string of several excuses... So you guys forgive me... Right?
Honestly, you have no idea how bad I feel about how long it's taken to update, but hopefully the fact that this is one of the longest chapters I have ever written will slightly make up for it. (14000+ WORDS! Including forenote etc, but the point still stands )
Thanks to all the people who have checked up on me, and I can assure you I am feeling much better, thanks :D
(Yep, I'm still alive, Hacker44!)
Anyways, by popular request, this chapter is going to be another Christmas one, before the fic ends, but with much more of a funny/crackish element mixed into it :D And, in order to make it more interesting, I decided to throw some other characters in that you will recognise from throughout the fic… Just because I can!

Thanks to Velmet, Blackfox Nightengale, inspibrain101, SisterAssassins, slyss, Kynater, LaurenJr, meganrules13, Emma x rose, PaopuPoweredPickle, Artemis Queen of the Night, S1lv3r3agl3, RichardGrimm, TheCatnipMadness,Sam X. Randome, I Danced Once Upon A Dream, NCISRoTGPJTMNTGRRATAT39CGAFAN, , vampireharry the 2, ShadowDragon 07, Rogue8496, ShinigameSeniade, Arrowshot, joseph_oshea_792, DevilzAngels, Jackie Winters, Caroline-Mina-Chan, roseandsouffles, xXPhantonXXx, sandjoe101, HeroLove123, Trumpet-Geek, koa-lover-random, Keito Serket, and scoobydoorules22 for the faves and/or follows of the fic since the last chapter :D Glad to see that there are still new readers joining the story! I will mention the other half of the most recent followers and favers next chapter, as my email pages are playing up *sigh*
Anyways, If you guys, and any of the newer followers/favers from the last few chapters would be able to find the time to give me a short review? I know you wouldn't have faved unless you enjoyed it, but could you let me know what you think is good and what needs some improvement? It would be great for in any other fics I write in future :D (And thanks to those who always give awesome detailed reviews. Its always appreciated! Then again, I appreciate all reviews, so keep em coming :D)

Soooo... All of that out of the way, I should probably tell you that Vader is kinda still hiding-I raged about the lack of Lollipops a week or so ago -, Han is still drunk, Luke has joined an inter-universal basket ball team, with Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig(Don't ask me how Porky got on the team, because I have absolutely no clue, only that it involved Lord Voldemort, An Imperious Curse, Pork Pies, a Talking Umbrella and Lemonade),and Mr 'I'm too cool to be a mere Jedi' Skywalker (sorry, he stole my strawberry juicebox and I'm still not very happy about it. One does not simply steal another person's juicebox. It's just the epitome of indecency *huffs*) Anyway, he is constantly under suspicion of using the force to cheat. Oh, and Chewie is dating an Ewok called Sue. Tell me about it, I have no idea how it's ever going to work out...
Ahem, anyways... Yep, that's all from the star wars fandom. Just PM me if you want any more news on anyone else form the various fandoms I always steal characters from *random huge grin* Unless you guys just give me characters and I'll write an authors note detailing everything about their lives!
And without further ado... Enjoy!
(Oh, and someone wanted me to throw In another guest OC from their fics, so I am going to be doing a mini-fic before the Christmas one really starts to make sure I get her in there :D)

Jade Summers

Jade Summers was a normal girl. Just a normal 14 year old girl... Energetic, Sometimes Childish, Often, those things went together and she acted like a five year old on a sugar high. Curious nature, loving family... Made up of a mother, a father and an irritating younger brother. True, she was a bit small for her age, but that never bothered her. Whenever she did complain about it, her mother just dropped the word petite. Sorted.
Dark blonde hair, surprisingly vivid green eyes-which were her favourite thing about herself- and fairly tanned skin from the holidays to the nice, warmer, sunnier climates her family often went on holidays too.
So yes, A loving family, going on holiday, a bit childish but mature when she needed to be... She was a normal teenage girl...
Or at least she was, before the house fire...
_

"Mum!" Jade was already coughing from the smoke, as she finally forced her bedroom door open. The ground floor of the house was already in flames, and the second floor was full of smoke.
"Mum!? Dad!? Mikey!?"
She didn't get a reply. Oh, right... She had gone to bed early... They were next door...
The smoke was making it hard to breathe, and she quickly backed back into the momentary safety of her room.
Running to the window, she realised that she would have to throw the mattress out and try to land on it... Okay then...
One of her more determined moments took over and she started trying to heave the mattress out of the window...
Nearly there... Almost... So much smoke... Flames licked around the doorway, and by now Jade was coughing so much that tears were streaming from her eyes and her breathing was getting laboured.
She collapsed down as she started getting dizzy, desperately trying to breathe.
A firemen's voice, from her school, interrupted her.
"Carbon Monoxide, it's called. You should never breathe it in... Exit Points... Check your alarms..."
It was almost like the voice was there, but the voice couldn't be there...
"Come on Jade, try to hold your breath... I've found her! Let's get moving!"
Voices... Raspy voices, almost unintelligible through the sound of crackling and the screaming... Was there screaming?
"Mum...?"
"Nearly there Jade, she's outside... Come on, hold on for us. We're going to get you some help, okay?"
Was she being carried...? It felt like it... Was that her mum Crying and screaming...? She tried to move, go to her...
But everything was so strange... and now she couldn't hear anything, couldn't feel anything... Is this what floating felt like? Maybe...?
"Jade!"
"Jadie!?"
Mikey...? Daddy...?
She wanted her Daddy to hold her again... Where was her Mum? Why was everything so strange?
Eventually, she gave into the beckoning darkness and everything else bled away...

3 Weeks Later...

No, they still could not see her. No-one could see her...
Jade was at some little town called Burgess. Where it was cold. She hated the cold. She loved the sun, and the warm...
And, for some reason, every time she touched some ice or odd patch of snow, it almost burned her...
And the orange dress and sandals she found herself wearing didn't seem to help matters at all.
Why she would wake up wearing them- NO! She wasn't going to think about it... What was there to think bout? Blurred figures with meaningless names like Mum and Dad and Mikey?
They were important somehow... She knew it... But she couldn't truly grasp why.
Anyway... Why was she somewhere so cold and apparently dangerous to her?
Because she had woken up and seen a flying boy, who looked a few years older than her. Flying-and how could someone normal fly?- and holding a staff, similar to hers.
Some random voice had spoken into her head when she first picked it up.
"Simply to help you control your powers... At first... It will not take long... He will come soon..."
What powers? What wouldn't take long? Wo would come?
As cryptic messages went, that one was a doozy- Huh, she was even speaking like Mikey now- Wait, Mikey?
Damn it! She almost had it...
The thought slipped away again as she huddled in on herself, sighing.
Then a sudden flash of blue caught her eye and she blinked, looking up and seeing the same boy-who else could be flying and have hair that white?- casually flying past several hundred meters away.
"HEY!"
"His name is Jack, Little one... I said he would not be long, did I not?"
Well, who was she to ignore the all knowing voice?
"JACK?"
The boy, Jack, flew to a halt, and span, catching sight of her.
He quickly flew over, his quick, mischievous smile putting her at ease almost immediately.
"Hey, do I know you?"
"I- I don't..." And just like that, she didn't know what to say.
"I don't... The voice told me to wait... for you. When I woke up..."
"When you... woke up?"
"Yeah... there was fire, then... I woke up here. I can barely remember anything, and I don't know... No-one can see me and... Do you know what's happening to me?"
Jack had frozen, blinking, but he shook himself out of it, muttering something about why on earth MiM would pick him.
"Sure. But it's going to take a lot of time to explain, okay?"
"Okay..."
"And perhaps you would like to go somewhere warmer?"
A glance at her clothes had told him that she was either Summer of Autumn, and, either way, it was too cold here.
"Yes please..."
"What's your name?"
"Jade. Jade Summers."
Ah, so Summer spirit then.
"Okay Jade... Now, I'm going to create a portal, to the North Pole- Look, It would take too long to explain here, okay? Just hop through with me, then we can sit down and I'll explain everything, with the help of a couple of friends. Is that okay?"
He gave her a warm smile, and she nodded.
"Okay then..." Jack threw some kind of orb, and shouted 'The Pole' and Jade yelped as a huge shimmering... thing appeared in the air.
"Okay, now you just walk through- Here, I'll hold your hand if you like?"
She nodded, grasping it, but loosened slightly when Jack winced.
"Sorry..."
"It's fine. Now then, on three. One... Two... Three."

Jade gave a huge, relieved sigh, as she stepped through into warmth. Well, it was slightly warmer anyway.
"Come on.
Jack still holding her hand, pulled her from the room and down a corridor, before stopping and knocking on a door, poking his head around?
"Hey North, you got an hour...? Or three?"
A voice came from inside.
"Of course, Jack. Is no Problem. What is matter?"
"OH MY GOD! YOU'RE SANTA!" Jade shouted, finally catching sight of the man, and North blinked.
"Err... Well..."
Jack shrugged, grinning.
"New spirit. Only a few days old from what I can gather. MiM did it again..."
North blinked, then ushered them both inside, offering Jade a comfortable armchair in front of a desk.
"So... New spirit?"
"Sorry but... What's a spirit?"
North exchanged a look with Jack, then spoke up.
"I think Tooth would be good for situation, Da?"
Jack nodded.
"I'll go get her. Okay, Jade? I'm just going to go and fetch someone, okay? Someone who can help us explain. I'll only be a short while."
Something told Jade that this... Spirit? Knew she was feeling uncomfortable about being in a strange place... Was he like her maybe?
"Now, North will keep an eye on you till then, Okay? And I'm sure he has some of my award winning cookies around here somewhere."
"Cookies?" Her eyes lit up at that.
North, who had decided to sit back and let Jack take charge of the situation, seeing as he knew what she must be going through, spoke up, nodding madly.
"Da! Are best cookies in the world! You must try them... Tilly!"
Jade blinked and yelped as a tiny creature ran into the room, bell bobbing on it's head... Was that an... Elf...?
"You must go get cookies please. Jade has never tried them."

The elf, if, indeed, that's what it was, jumped several feet into the air in shock, and stared at her, open mouthed, before legging it from the room.
Jade couldn't help a giggle, and Jack smiled.
"Okay, I won't be long. You'll be okay here?"
"Yeah..."
"Okay then."
Jack gave her a other quick smile, then leapt from the window.
Jade yelped again, racing over, only to see him flying away, quite safe.
"Ah yes, gave me heart attack when he did that first time too." North said, making her turn back. "Now then, would you like to help me on new toy design? Is teddy bear, but I cannot get the colours just right... Is most irritating, da?"
"So... You really are Santa?"
North pouted. "Is silly human name. I am North." Jade had giggled again at the pout, and immediately decided she liked the man as he rolled his eyes, childishly, at the actions of the 'Humans', before clapping his hands together in a childish glee.
"Now then... Cookies then toys?"
Jade nodded, shyly.
"Okay."
"Wonderful! Is going to be good fun-!"
"Hey, Hang on. Are those... Swords?"
_

Two days later, as her, Jack, Tooth and North were sat in North's study, and Jade was definitely feeling better about everything. Her memories had become much clearer, and she was missing her family, but Jack had taken her to visit them, to see that they were okay. They couldn't see her, but she knew they were fine.
She was also coming to grips with the kind of spirit she was, and had just discovered that she had a strange affinity with fire... Of course, Jack did not react well to the huge burst of flame which erupted, and had to spend a couple of hours lounging in the snow to get rid of the huge headache he had.
But now they had an issue. None of them were the right kind of person to teach her about her abilities. Jck had taught himself, but he didn't want Jade to have to take that route herself, plus there was the fact that he was Winter. He would not mix well with a Summer spirit in training. None of the other guardians had any experience with anything specifically summery, and though they could teach her a little about being a spirit, none of them were, by any reach of the imagination, normal seasonal spirits. So who could they get to help her?
Jack had finally just shrugged and visited Gale, to get her opinion of things, and Gale had given them the idea of asking Mother Nature. If anyone would be a good model to learn from, it would be her.
Which was why they were all currently sat in the office, awaiting her arrival.
They weren't waiting too long.

Mother Nature, or Nanna Nat as she was sometimes known, swept into the room, smiling and started greeting them all.
She sighed when she reached Jack, but couldn't help the smile which slid onto her face at the, deliberately, over-enthusiastic hug he gave her. She had never really gotten to know the winter spirit, now Guardian, well, but they had seen each other in passing, and the other Guardians weren't the only ones who felt guilt about how he had been forced to live for so long. But, with all that swept aside, she found him to be a mischievous, really well-mannered and kind Guardian, and well deserving of his role.
But she was here for another reason.
"Ah, so you must be Jade Summers... Just call me Nanna Nat, everyone else seems to."
Jade was immediately at ease with her motherly manner, and visibly seemed to warm to the much older spirit.
"Nice to meet you."
Jack grinned as the two started speaking, the rest of them chipping in as they spoke to her about everything.
Gale was a genius...

A further two days later, and Jade had just hugged Jack good-bye, promising to visits and demanding that he visit her, before following Mother Nature from the Pole, now going to live with the older spirit until she felt more comfortable and was better trained in her abilities, at which point Jack had the feeling that Gale would be getting a new room-mate. The two younger female spirits had gotten on amazingly well when he had introduced them, and even over this short amount of time seemed to be on track to be closer than sisters. And he had no doubt that Lily and Flow would likewise quickly warm to the newcomer, as would his other friends.
It seemed no-one was willing to let the young girl, now spirit, fend for herself as Jack had had to.
After saying a quick good-bye to North, Jack flew off in the opposite direction, now having gained another friend/sister, to spread some more winter cheer. After all, Christmas was only a couple of weeks away...
Oh, wait... He hadn't created a snowstorm over northern Asia in a while...? The fact that the Groundhog's winter holiday home/burrow was there was just an added bonus.
With that excuse seeming flimsy even to him, he shrugged and took off in that direction anyway. He could always make a quick snow cloud over the palace as well.
Apparently Tooth thought it wasn't Christmasy enough there.
Ah well, with North's plans for Christmas this year, she would probably soon end up with more Christmas... ness than all five of them together could handle.
Which reminded him, he really needed to get those last few invitations delivered...
_

Just a reminder, Jade Summers is a guest OC, who someone(Can't find who, so you will have to remind me, Sorry!) asked me to slot in. Hopefully, I got her Character right and everything!
So, without further ado(because I doubt you all waited this long to hear me blather on some more) Guardians Christmas, Number 3! Enjoy :D
(Oh, and before it starts properly, there is another, small, Christmassy based one, because you all deserve everything I can throw in!)

12 days of Christmas... Jack Frost Style.

Day 1- 12 Experimental Alarm Clocks.

Aspen woke with a yell, falling from his bed, only to wince as Clover fell on top of him, also yelping.
"What on earth is that!?"
He winced, realising what it must be.
"Erm... Sweetie? You know I had a bet going with Jack...? And the forfeit was to put up with 'gifts' for the twelve days running up till Christmas...?"
"Aspen Aquilo..."
Oh crap, her dangerous voice... And the full name!?
"Well... Err... I kinda... Maybe... Lost."

Day 2- Eleven Baking Yeti's

"Well, in all fairness, it could have been worse."
"We can barely move around the place, Aspen!"
"True... But they are following Jack's cookie recipe!"
"Really?" Clover quickly forgot her annoyance as she set about munching cookies.
Aspen sighed in relief.
Talk about a decent distraction!

Day 3- 10 Huge, constantly bouncing balls

"I swear- AGH! When I get hold of Jack I'll- Clo! To your left!"
Clover quickly ducked, and glared at him.
"Your fault for betting against him! If you'd just- DUCK!"
He ducked, already retorting.
"Hey! I thought I could win-"
"He always ropes you in by making you-" she leapt over another one- "-think you can win, but you-" she leapt out of the way of another "-never do. I would have thought you would know that by now!"
Aspen scowled, berating himself for falling for the trap again.
"Yeah, but he's smart, Clo! He-" He yelped as he threw himself to the floor to avoid another ball. "He always drags you in!"
"Eurgh, Men! Honestly..."
"LOOK OUT!"
"DUCK! ON YOUR LEFT!"
"YEOW!"
SPLAT!
Groan.

Day 4- 9 Prancing Reindeer

"... Shouldn't we get them back to North? You know, now that they've eaten all out carrots...?"
"Nah, they're just Prancer's younger brothers. Oh, Sorry Mistletoe, and Rudolph's younger sister."
"… How, on Moon, do you keep their names straight?"
"... Talking... Lots and lots of talking..." Aspen's face took on a look that told Clover he was reliving some rather unsavoury memory, and she smacked him to snap him out of it.
"Aspen!?"
"Wha'? No more cookies! No More! I GET IT! DASHER AND DANCER AND PRANCER AND VIXEN AND COMET AND CUPID AND DONNER AND BLITZEN AND RUDOLPH AND BERT AND ERNIE AND CAROL AND TYER AND POPSICLE AND CRYSTAL AND MISTLETOE AND SKYLAR AND-"
"ASPEN!"
"What? Oh... Sorry. What happened?"
"... Nothing sweetie. Nothing."

Day 5- 8 Overhanging Pieces of Mistletoe

"Eurgh, I love you Clover? But Im going to start avoiding this mistletoe... WHOA! Groundhog...?"
Sure enough, it was the Groundhog, and he was drunk.
"Sorry... Jack said to visit... Said good for you... me? ALL OF US! VISITING IS GOOD! And so is wine and OOH! LOOK! MISTLETOE!"
"Clover Sweetie? Just sit there, I'll come to you."
"... I like that Plan."
"AND I IKE WINE AND VISITING! AH, FRIENDS IS GOOD!"
"I hate Jack right now."
"Again, this is your fault..."
"Oh, come on! Can you not let it go?
"The groundhog is hoping to kiss me, or more worryingly either or both of us, beneath the mistletoe. WOULD YOU LET IT GO!?"
"... No. I guess not."

Day 6- 7 Opera singing elves.

"Hey, Clover? You know how Elven throat singing is exceedingly high pitched and irritating and makes you want to run and hide?"
Clover blinked as she came into the room.
"Yes? Why- Oh Moon... Oh Moon no..."
Their home was suddenly filled with the high pitched wailing of Elvish throat singing, provided by seven tiny elves. Honestly, Clover thought a couple of hours later- as she hid beneath the bed wearing three pairs of ear-muffs and with a thick blanket covering her-, How did Jack think of such evil, nefarious plots!?

Day 7- 6 Clucking Chickens.

"Aww! Look Azzie! They're so cute an fluffy!"
Aspen hated chickens. Hater their constant clucking, scratching and pecking. Hated their evil glares when they thought you weren't looking... Oh yes. The Chickens would cause the fall of the world as they knew it... And now he would have to keep six of them in his house because his wife said so.
And she was the boss, so what could he do?
"Look Aspen! They have names! This ones... Cluck. And Chuck, and Lucky and Squawk and Feathers... And Boris!"
"Boris?"
"You got a problem with that!?"
"N-No Honey... N-Not at all. Lovely name."

Day 8- 5 Drunken Sprites singing Carols... (For five hours of course)

The day had passed quietly. But instead of being relieved, the two of them had gradually gottn more and more worried about what Jack had in store.
O the point that it was now Five in the evening, and Aspen was rocking backwards and forwards, biting his nails. Clover was too busy pacing and fretting to bother to tell him not to, and they both jumped when the doorbell rang.
This must be it...
Clover, seeing the state her husband was in-namely falling to pieces- sighed, took a deep breath to steady herself, and opened the door...

"On the first day of Christmas, My True love sent to me-"
"A partridge in a Santa Claus is coming to Town... Wait, tree-"
"Two singing songbirds in a Christmas tree, Oh Christmas Tree, how lovely are- "
"Happy birthday to me! And trees-! Your Branches, Stevie it's your branches..."
"Your birthday?"
"To me!"
"A very merry unbirthday to me!"
"To you..."
"To me!"
"One-horse open sleigh, Hey! Jingle Tree... Tree..."
Clover blinked, then cursed Jack to the sunniest depths of the Sahara Desert.
Carol Singers... Sprite Carol Singers... Drunken Sprite Carol Singers!? How cruel could one spirit possibly be!?

-5 Hours Later-

"Thanks for you... Your... Ten... Tent..."
"Tension?
"Attention methinks is the word..."
""Yeah... Fanks fer yer tention... *hiccup*"
Clover managed to keep the smile on her face till the door closed and their footsteps receded, before she finally let out the scream of frustration she had been holding in all evening.
"JACKSON OVERLAND FROST, WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU I WILL PERSONALLY DRAG YOU BY YOUR SMUG FACE TO THE NEAREST BEACH AS SOON AS SUMMER COMES AROUND YOU IRRITATING BAG OF BUBOTUBER PUS!"
"... Been reading Harry Potter, sweetie?"
"AND YOU- YOU..."
Aspen sighed. He would never make a bet with Jack again. Ever. Never ever, for as long as they both shall live... and Beyond...

Day 9- 4 Singing Songbirds.

Okay, so it had been nice in the morning, when they arrived, and they were really good at chirping out Christmassy Tunes, but did they really never shut up!?
Tweet Tweet Chirp...
Eurgh, would it never end? That was the 18th time that song had been replayed... And that was only since they had started counting. If Aspen heard 'We Wish You A Merry Christmas' one more time...
Tweet, Chirp, Chirp, Tweet... Tweeeet!
Clover very precisely finished slicing the cheese she was cutting, before very carefully making the sandwiches. Ever so Carefully... Because she would not break. Oh no, she would not break. Jack would not make her break! NEVER!

Day 10- 3... 00 Dancing Elves

Actually, she wanted to join in. After all, when 300 elves start doing a conga line through your home, after having danced the can-can with little matching outfits and everything, how could you not? So join in she did. Nothing wrong with a Conga Line.
Aspen simply sank into the sofa, and barely acknowledged the elves when they started leaping over him. Only two more days to go... Two more days, then it would be over- The Party! Oh Moon, they were doomed...

Day 11- 2... Hours worth of trying on interesting outfits. (Plus a photo-shoot, because that's always fun.)

To be fair, when they were woken and thrown in sacks by masked figures speaking Yeti, they were pretty sure they were Yeti's. Really, was the kidnapping even necessary? So Clover simply went back to sleep, and Aspen sighed, trying to figure out where they were going.

Clover grinned. Well, as things went, this could be very fun indeed.
A Christmas Photo Shoot with Tooth? Could be worse.
She actually rather liked the Mrs Claus outfit., though Aspen was bemoaning the fact that North was not going to be happy about this. After all, Tooth had told them that Jack got this idea simply to annoy North, and make Aspen look as ridiculous as possible.
First set of outfits, Mr and Mrs Claus...
Second set of outfits... Gingerbread man and Tree topping Angel. Or rather, Gingerbread woman-which Clover again enjoyed- and a very disgruntled Aspen as an Angel.
Third set of outfits, Tarzan and Jane. And yes, Aspen was Jane.
Fourth set of outfits, Human 1920's style. Aspen looked so adorable in a dress.
Fifth set of outfits, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. Clover made a brilliant Peter Pan...
And Captain Hook for that matter, as Aspen became Mr Smee, for their sixth set of outfits.
And then, for the seventh and final set of outfits, and because Tooth used every persuasive technique in her arsenal to convince Jack to let her, 007 style. Finally, Aston got to be the male in the pair, as he simply could not pull off the dresses... But to be fair, being a techie/background character from one of the films was not what he had had in mind. Then Tooth rolled her eyes at her 'little joke' and put him in a tux. Huh... Could have been worse, she supposed.
By then, the two hours were up and Aston gave a huge sigh of relief as he fled the room to grab an orb for a portal, leaving Clover to high five Tooth and demand pictures.
Then Tooth grinned.
"For blackmail?"
"Yep..."
"Too late. Jack's getting copies of them all, as well as the single shots that were taken of Aspen. But I'm sure he'll let you borrow them... Or if you hint at what you want for your Birthday...?"
Clover laughed, nodding.
"Sounds like a plan. See you at the Party, Tooth."

Day 12(Christmas Eve)- 1... Letter?

Aspen opened the envelope with, understandable, trepidation, then pulled out and unfolded the letter.
Hey guys, seeing as you're going to need some rest for that Party tomorrow, and I'm not cruel enough to send One of my, personally trained, Ninja Elves-on a caffeine high- to your place as was my original plan, I decided to let you have one day of rest... Enjoy!
Jack.

Aspen finished reading, and shared a look with Clover, before they both promptly sank onto the sofa, exhaling in relief.
Within moments, they were both asleep, equally excited about and dreading the fact that the party was only one day away...
_ _ _

(And now, onto the real part of this chapter, Lol :D Enjoy!)

---

Parties, Presents, Pranks and... Pitch? Perfect... Literally!

Jack instinctively ducked one Yeti-who was running flat out with an armful of coloured bouncy balls- and casually leapt over another one- who was running with several boxes stacked on his arms, filled with crayons of all things- before turning only to see the two collide with each other as they tried to run around the corner. The resulting explosion on bouncy balls and crayons had him sighing.
Oh, the joys of Christmas rush...
After getting the wind to help roll everything into a pile, and using a small layer of snow to stop the balls bouncing, he disentangled himself from the grateful, overly emotional-thanks to the season- Yeti's, he continued down the hall.

After aimlessly sidestepping another Yeti in a rush, and dodging several elves who were running around-possibly to make themselves feel important, seeing as they were only carrying scrunched up wrapping paper... Unless they were on garbage duty? Ouch...- and finally stepped into the relative safety of North's office...
Or rather, he assumed it would be safe, until he turned to see North literally running in circles and flapping about 'Never being ready' and 'Why would dancer have his stag do the night before? He is still slightly hungover!'
Jack did a double take at that. Dancer had a stag do? Either he was seriously out of the loop, or North was over-reacting and letting his imagination get away from him. Again. In all fairness? He was gonna go for the latter option.
and then, in a display of courage which would later have Bunny open mouthed in his disbelief as he heard the details, Jack flew forward and tapped the crazed Russian-who was actually waving his swords around- on the shoulder.
"North...?"
He yelped as North swung around, and ducked the blade.
"MOON NORTH! Watch where you're swinging those things!"
North blinked, hen looked at the swords as though he didn't know he was holding them.
"Ah... Sorry Jack. I am just stressed..."
"Really? Couldn't tell... Hey, you know the Yetis and elves have things under control... Like they do every year..."
"But- But they-"
"No Buts! Now either you sit down and rest, or I will fetch Sandy. He might even use too much sand and you'll be late...-" He finished, in a conspiratorial whisper, and North gave a very impressive wail of despair.
"NO! I will be good. Look, I am sitting and everything! See? See?! I even have a cookie! I am resting! DON'T CALL SANDY!" He gave a very impressive puppy-eyed look, the effect of which was slightly ruined by the manic glint in his eyes and the crazy mess that was his frazzled hair and beard, and Jack blinked.
"Okay, I won't... Now, remember what we said about breathing?"

"Yes. Breathing is important. Breathing is good... Breathing is calming so do it you should...?"
"Very good. Now then, are you breathing?"
"Yes... Now."
"Good. Now go sort out the Yeti's who are caterwauling about multi-coloured balls?"
North took a deep breath, and nodded, getting to his feet, a stern look coming over his features.
"Caterwauling? ON CHRISTMAS EVE! Not for long!" then, as he went out... "Breathing is important, breathing is good... Don't get the swords out... Or maybe I should?"
Jack decided it was probably best to not interfere, and snatched up a cookie before heading across to the parcel room to re-ice the ice chutes, seeing as that was where he had been heading originally. They had started to melt.
_

Ice chutes dealt with, twenty minutes later, and he had arrived back at the burrow.
"Hey Frostbite, you're still alive?"
"Yeah. Had to sort North out, seeing he was in sword waving senile mode, and had to help in three clear-ups, but I'm alive."
"Wait, he had the swords out? Wow... That stressed huh?"
"His beard was frazzled..."
Bunny gave a low whistle, before nodding to Jack.
"Yer a brave one mate, I'll give ya that. Oh, Shady arrived when you were gone. Now we're just waiting for Snowden, Clover and Azzy, then that's everyone." Then his face fell slightly. "Groundhog said he'd meet at the Pole later. Fool sent to say he'd be a bit late. Honestly, why did you and North decide to invite those two?"
"Really? Really and truly? I thought it would be amusing, and North thought they would annoy you. Apparently, it' my job to keep Fool under control. Seriously! How is that even possible?"
"So it was all North's idea!?"
"Yes. Yes it was."
"That ridiculous nodding and innocent expression isn't filling me with confidence Frostbite..."
"... Okay, so I may have put them on the original list, but North decided! Honest! I was all for just blocking up the Groundhog's home with snow!" Jack gave a grade three Puppy eyed look, assuming, correctly, that it would be all that was required to nullify the situation.
"... You are forgiven. On the condition that you help me get North back for this..."
Jack gave him look #4.
"Your condition is a prank? Why even bother?"
"... Ya know, I honestly have no idea any more... So, got any plans for the party? Seeing as everyone, as in everyone, is going to be there...?"
Jack simply grinned, and Bunny decided that maybe, just this once, it would be better not to know.
_

All of the spirits who had arrived early with Jack (namely Shady, Gale, Flow, Lily, Clover and Aspen-Who were now fully awake thanks to the day's worth of sleep they had managed to get- and Jade) to see North off, were all staring at the huge man-who was all dressed up in his Christmasy fineness, with his hair and beard brushed into some sense of order- in silence.
"What!? I only wanted to see what it would do..." The man whined. They still couldn't really speak to respond to that, as the shock was still in play.
Jack finally managed to splutter.
"So you... You decided to take the helium from the balloons...?"
North, now with a ridiculously high pitched voice, pouted-with crossed arms and everything-.
"Is not so funny, you know... Is most annoying."
This was in response to a grin which was slowly forming on Jack's face as the shock wore off, at which point, he burst out laughing.
"Well, that's one way to lighten the mood..."

This snapped the others out of it as they groaned at the terrible joke, and North pouted even more as a few of them started laughing or smirking.
"Is not that funny- Da! See? Voice is back to normal now!"
This started another round of groans, and North glared at them.
"Is not very nice... I blame Phil and Steve."
"Steve?" Jack blinked. "But he's one of the quietest of the lot!"
"Apparently, silence hides pranking intellect."
Jack's eyes took on a plotting glint, which he quickly shoved to the back of his mind before the others could notice. Too late... Ah well.
"Hmmm... We shall see. Hey Tooth, Sandy."
The other two guardians said Hi, Tooth with a hug and Sandy with sign language, before they quickly spoke to North. They then joined in waving him off, and head back into the main hall, to see what the Yeti's had set out for the Party later that night.
No doubt it would be in full swing by the time North got back, which was why they were leaving opening their gifts for the following morning.
Jack grinned as they took in the room.
The hall had definitely been changed around.
Tables stood around the edge, waiting to hold food, a few sofa's, beanbags and chairs had been placed in one corner, just by a huge Christmas tree, and North and Jack had worked together to infuse some Human music players with magic, to make them louder and easier to work. Seeing as North could not, for the life of him, figure out how to turn it on. No matter how many times they showed him what the 'On/Off' symbol looked like.
They had erected a small stage, at one side of the room, with a magic infused microphone-at Jack's request, though they decided they really did not want to know why, only knowing that Phil was involved in some capacity.
The beams and the walls were covered in tinsel and Christmassy chandeliers and wind chimes, there was a huge disco ball hanging from the ceiling, and Phil and Sandy had placed some multi-coloured lights in position to shine onto it.
All in all, they had managed to give North the party he wanted... Or they hoped so. After all, how could you interpret 'Must be BIG! Big party, many people and much food. Must have fun also, so be free Jack!' except for basically making the place shiny, pretty and letting Jack have a go at the plan for the night. The shiny and pretty because it would amuse North, and the Plan because it would keep Jack busy. Win-Win as far as the other guardians were concerned.

And with the guest list at over a hundred, with +1's, 2's and... well, actually, anyone, they hoped everyone would be enjoying themselves. Then again, with Jack planning the night's activities? How could it be anything else?
Though they had no idea how he would have managed to make it fun for all the age groups and types of spirit, especially seeing as this would be the first time many of them had been introduced to him properly, and they would definitely be making some first impressions.
So they would all do all they could to make it a good one.
Whilst having fun, coz hey! It was Christmas!
_

Jack took a step back, glanced around the room, and finally gave it his nod of approval, turning only to see that Tooth and Bunny had long since fallen into dozes at the table. Sandy, on the other hand, was happily whistling to himself-or Jack assumed he was, seeing as it was all silent- as he threw up even more tinsel and sprinkled even more confetti and glitter from the ceiling to fall on the room below.
It took almost ten minutes to get him to stop, and when he did it was with a grumpy frown, but Jack's idea of how to have the other two wide awake for the night soon had the oldest guardian grinning again, as he flew off to grab what Jack needed. Honestly, when on Moon had Jack stocked high caffeine energy drinks and shots beneath the loose floorboards in every corner of the Pole?
Talk about always being prepared...

"NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT, FROST!"
"Not happening Sweet Tooth."
"NO WAY ARE WE TAKIN' THAT CAFFEINE."
"Bunny, lower your voice. We can speak about this rationally..."
"But it is.. It's... Doom in a shot glass, Tooth!"
"I know... But that is no reason to lose your head over it. Now, rationally... Ahem... NO! NOT NOW, NOT EVER!"
Jack shared a look with Sandy, who had just let his face fall, and gave a shrug, before signing.
"I think that means no..."
"We'll see..."
He gave Tooth and Bunny one last chance.
"Come on guys, one shot?"
They both gave resolute shakes of their head, and Jack sighed. Why did they always have to make it difficult. He took a composing breath, then et his face fall into a grade one Puppy-eyed look.
Within seconds, him and Sandy were whistling cheerfully as they went to greet the first guests, and Bunny and Tooth were busy bemoaning their fate, having downed several of the 'Shot glasses of Doom'.
_

The party was going rather well. Everyone was chatting, eating food, swaying to the normal, human, Christmas music, and having a fairly good time... On the surface.
Underneath it all, they were wondering-and most were very much looking forward to- when Jack Frost was going to start the ball rolling.
They would not be waiting long.
As soon as an elf-in an important looking delivery boy outfit- ran in and handed a note to Jack, everyone froze and tried to understand the jibber-jabbering which was going on. Seriously, when did Jack learn Jibber-Jabber? It was ridiculously difficult to learn, seeing as so many of the sounds sounded the same.
Jack nodded to the elf, paying him a cookie, and grinned a grin which had the spirits who did not really know Jack hiding behind the spirits who did, who were, in turn, hiding behind the pillars and yeti's in the room. Who were, coincidently, hiding behind anything they could get their paws on. Including two silver trays, one Christmas tree, one terrified looking Sprite from the Sprite High Council and a leg of ham.
Jack blinked when he scanned the room, then rolled his eyes.
"Oh Please." He shook his head, "I'm not planning on pranking anyone in this room tonight."
Their was a momentary rise in air pressure as a couple of hundred beings simultaneously gave out a sigh of relief.
"Unless I get bored or get requests from other people in the room which are very creative.."
There was now a momentary drop of air pressure as everyone breathed in a terrified gasp, whilst also looking around the room to see if they could find someone they really disliked, and a plotting gleam appeared in many an eye as they started to think of pranks which would be creative enough to appeal to the Guardian of Fun.
"Anyways!" Jack's voice, through the microphone, drew them all out of their plotting modes, as they turned to him.
"That was a message from one of my elf spies at the- Ahem, I mean, one of the elves who coincidentally happened to be doing a job at the south side of the Pole-"
Bunny shook his head, interrupting quickly.
"North isn't here, remember? You can relax."
Jack blinked, then sighed in a relieved way.
"Sorry guys, I'm just trying to hide the fact that I have an entire network of elf spies, throughout Santoff Claussen, from North. Worryingly enough, seeing as I'm not being too subtle about it, it appears to be working. Anyway, I have just received word that Fool is about-well, thirty seconds away now- from arriving, and I have a welcome surprise for him, at the request of Sandy. Now then, if I can divert your attention to the projector screen at the far end of the hall, the fun can begin..."

His evil grin was hidden by the fact that the light suddenly dimmed, and Phil turned the projector on...
The hall was soon filled with laughter as they watched Fool's defeat the last April Fool's day. And there was a rounding encore for Jack as the video ended with him saving the Tooth Palace and defeating Fool in a 'Yo Mamma Jokes' Battle.
When the laughter died down, the sound of thunking and groaning could be heard from the doorway, where Fool was head-butting the door, muttering about 'How could they have filmed it!?' and 'Never living this down' and 'Vengeance!' Well, the last word was shouted, with a manic gleam in his eyes, but Jack's agenda for the night had already passed on to the next event, and Fool had to content himself with grumbling and joining the crowd.
"Now, next on the agenda, is a request from the Pied Piper- Hey Piper! Anyways, he says he had so much fun at a Dance Off we had here a few months ago, that he wants the video shown. Unfortunately, the video was... Misplaced. Yes, let's go with that... Not being kept for Blackmail purposes at all, simply misplaced... But I have something even better. Sandy has agreed to give us an example, and the dance off game will be on for the rest of the evening is anyone wants to have a go against our resident Champion, Sanderson! Oh, and Clover? Drag Shady up here so that we can all see how not to do it?"
This was met with laughter from most, and playful grumbling from Shady as he was dragged over to the game.
In the end, there were four people giving the 'example'. Sandy, Shady, Tooth and The Groundhog (seeing as so many people wanted him up there and he thought it looked like fun).
Jack grinned as he motioned to Steve- Phil's second in command, seeing as Phil was double checking that everything was ready for North's return- and Steve quickly switched on the song.
YMCA started blasting from the speakers, as Jack crept forward in a very dramatic fashion, and changed the setting of the game from beginner to 'YOLO'... True, he and the Tech Yeti's used a little magic and shizzle to reprogramme the game with that extra setting, but it was amusing.

Shockingly to everyone, The Groundhog beat Tooth, who was too shocked at this unexpected event to do anything except give him a congratulatory pat on the back.
When all the fuss had died down, and the four dancers-True, Shady had tripped over his own feet half way... okay then, 30... 23 seconds into the song, and Aspen had quickly been a true friend and bravely taken his place, but they still gave him the Title- had re-hydrated themselves, Jack skimmed through the nights agenda, then looked towards the clock grinning as he noticed the time.
"Perfect. Okay, now. We have one more thing for you for now, before we have a break from tonight's... entertainment?"- There was a smattering of laughter and applause- "Until North returns. And, speaking of North, My Spie- Sources tell me-"
"North still isn't here, mate."
"Yes, thank you Bunny. I was aware of that. There are still some of my 'Top Secret Recipe Chocolately Heavenly Delight' still on the table, so that's a big clue as to the fact that he is still not here-"
This was the cue for the Groundhog and Lily to engage in a race against several elves towards the table, where a brawl started over the cookies. It ended a few minutes later, when Mother Nature marched over. Within seconds, Lily was poking her tongue out at the elves, as she munched on a cookie, and the Groundhog was dangling next to said elves as they swung upside down from the beams. He was let down a few seconds later, as no-one was cruel enough to keep him up there when the eves had started a brawl whilst upside down, and were hitting each other with Candy Canes which were as big as two of them put together..
A few moments later, Jack cleared his throat to get the attention back, and shrugged.
"Sorry guys, but North will be arriving in Burgess in a matter of moments. I'll start another elf brawl later- GARFUNKEL! LEAVE PRANCELOT ALONE! NO JAMMING THE CANDY CANE-" He blinked, cutting off, as a wave of laughter erupted through the hall, as they watched the two elves, the rest of them having frozen in horror at the sight in front of them. Garfunkel had used the Candy Cane to knock off Prancelots hat!
The elves shivered in terror at the mistreatment of the poor hat, ignoring the fact that Prancelot was now spinning in circles as Garfunkel span him with an evil glint in his elfish eyes, and Jack quickly motioned for Phil to take care of it.
"Ahem, anyway...!" He quickly drew attention to himself trying to drown out the indignant yelps and sounds of thunking candy canes as Yeti vs Elf battle started, which was promptly encased in a golden, sound-proof bubble by Sandy.
"Yes, Thanks Sandy, anyway. North will be shortly arriving in Burgess where the kids have decided to sing one of my own versions of a certain Christmas Song to serenade him as he works. Fortunately, I had the foresight to soundproof the houses, but unfortunately, one of the lead singers, Cupcake, was caught as she attempted to sneak from the house and- Yes, Poppinog?" Jack bent down to hear what the messenger elf- dressed as a ninja- was saying. "Oh... Thanks Pop. It appears that a group of my ninja elves accidentally appeared and caused Cupcake's mother to faint. Cupcake is now with the others, and her mother's memory has been modified so she will think it was a dream. What a fortunate coincidence that I had nothing at all to do with as I am miles away from the place... So, Without further ado, allow me to direct you to our reporter Yeti, Bartholomew, who is live at Burgess. Bartholemew! What is going on over there?"
A little magic and the Yeti Speak became just legible to those who didn't speak Yeti.
"Well Jack, the choir is all set, ready to sing 'The Senile Old Russian Is Coming to Town'. Great song, by the way, The Children have most enjoyed learning it."
"Not at all, Barty, Not at All."
"Anyway, so, we are just awaiting the arrival of the big man himself... AND HERE HE IS!"
The camera image moved to North, who had just landed in his sleigh, and who glared into the Camera.
"Jack, if this is you, we shall be having words, Da?"
Then he blinked as several elves rushed out to set up a mini-conductors box in the square, in front of the children, and several stood on each others shoulders as the one on the top started to wave Candy Cane like a conductors baton.
The kids shared looks, shrugged, and then Jamie cleared his throat.
"And ah-One, ah-Two... ah- 1,2,3,4!"
"You better watch out,
You better not cry,
Don't even try the pout
I'm telling you why
The Russian is coming to town
He's immune to low class pout
Santa clause is coming to town"

North blinked, Jack high fived Phil and Steve, and the Spirits were busy laughing and clapping, which faded off as the next verse started, so they could hear it properly.

"He makes a list
And checks it twice
Tattoo's on his arms of who's naughty and nice
The Russian is coming to town
A blade wielding bandit is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you are bad or good
If you're Pitch Black, watch out for the blades-"

Jack only had time to sigh about the fact that Pitch had not yet arrived, when he heard an indignant hey from the back of the room, where Pitch had just flown in.
"Frost!-"
"After the song, Pitchy. "

"O! You better watch out
You better not cry
Don't even try to pout,
Coz you're all outclassed guys,-"

The song paused at this point, and Jamie spoke up.
"Yes Jack, you deserve your recognition! Go for it Phil!"
Phil promptly lifted Jack up, and the other Yeti's gestured to him, at which point the winter spirit gave an elaborate bow-stood on Phil's shoulders- before speaking up in his 'Elvis' voice.
"Why Thank you. Thank you very much."
Back in Burgess, Jamie quickly spoke up again, shaking his head and grinning at Jack's antics.
"Okay, and go!"

"That's right!, Coz the Russian is coming to town
The far too jolly swordsman is coming to town,
Santa Claus is coming to town!
Santa Claus is coming Toooooo Tooooooooooowwnnnnnnnn!"

Laughter, cheering and applause erupted from the hall, as the kids all gave a bow, before scattering to run back to their houses, leaving Jamie to give a quick goodbye.
"Hope you enjoyed the Beats of the Burgess Band- Yeah, I know, but not my fault. Phil thought alliteration would be cool. Anyway's, the song was written by Jack- Sorry Jack, North is glaring at the camera now. You're in trouble... Music provided by the Yeti Orchestra, Conducting was done by... " The elves squeaked their names, glad to have recognition. "Really? Okay, Bill, Ben, Bill Jr, Ben Jr, Billy, Benjamin and Calaboosh! Hope you all enjoyed, now I have to sneak back to bed before my Mother realises I'm gone. Night all! Merry Christmas!"
There was more cheering as the party guests applauded the kids once more, before the camera focused back to North, who had his arms crossed.
"Jack, We shall be having words."
"... I have cookies."
"... We shall be having fewer words."
"Chocolatey Heavenly Delight Cookies...?"
"... You are forgiven."
"So predictable..."
"What?"
"Nothing. See you in an hour!"
"... How do you know I will be only an hour more?"
"Hehe... he... Sorry North, signal is breaking up. Barty? Bar- sig... brea..."
The yeti rolled his eyes at Jack's over-dramatic-ness, and saluted, cutting the transmission.
Jack gave a small bow as he got a round of applause, before he gestured to the food.
"Well then, we have an hour before the next bout of fun can really begin. So enjoy yourselves! Oh, and a few quick announcements. Bunny and Tooth are high on Caffeine... Just a bit of friendly advice there... Erm, right, the elves are playing Poker in the corner over there, which is always amusing to watch seeing as they don't actually know how to play, My Pranking co-ordinator, Alan-" A Yeti wearing glasses, a tie and holding a clipboard waved- "Will be accepting pranking requests, and will select those that he deems the most creative. And Sam, the DJ Yeti-can't really miss him, he's wearing an eighties style human wig and is dressed like Elvis, will be accepting requests for songs. Oh, and new batch of cookies will be about ten minutes, as I'm afraid the elves 'lost' the last one. And that's all for now. Have fun!"
The music started back up again, and Jack grinned as the Elves Poker table erupted into a slapsies fight over who had the most number 9's, because apparently that means that they won the pile of feathers in the middle of the table.
A few more spirits were crowded around the Just Dance Game, some were dancing in the middle of the hall to the music, a couple were talking with Alan, several were annoying Bunny and Tooth and the rest were chatting, milling around and eating.
Jack caught Sandy's eye, and the older Guardian gave him a huge grin and thumbs up.
So going good so far.
"Frost!"
"Oh... er... Hey Pitch! How's your evening been?"
"Jack!"
"Hey Fool! S'up?"
_

North's arrival was met with cheering and many pats on the back, and he only caught snippets of the speech people sent his way.
"-Should have had Jack arrange a party sooner-"
"Very impressive-"
"Saved you cookies...-"
"Jack...-"
"Frostie over there-"
"-Had Jack totally wrong...-"
And North grinned. Talk about a good impression.
Well, he did think that until he was covered with snow. Green Snow.
"Sorry North. Prank request. Because Green is better than Red."
"Bunnymund! I-"
"Actually? It wasn't. I'm obliged to keep client confidentiality, but it was not Bunny. I know, shocked me too."
"... Client?" North latched onto the only thing he could use, and realised he was genuinely curious. "What do you mean, Client?"
"Well, It's such a hit here, I thought I might as well make it a real-world application. You are witnessing the birth of... Of..."
Spectrum spoke up.
"X-treme? With an X, not an Ex at the beginning."
Jack's eyes lit up with a childish glee. "X-ellent! Yeah. X-treme. Details will follow shortly."
He raced off to his 'secretary' and started speaking in very fast Yeti, as Alan furiously tried to follow, ink flying everywhere from his pen as it moved across the paper.
He then quickly handed the prank requests to Jack to complete, before taking off, summoning several Elves to accompany him.
Jack then returned to the crowd, whistling cheerfully.
"Sorry, necessary evil I'm afraid. Now then, how about we continue with the party? What's next on the Agenda, Phil?"
Grunt, snort.
"Oh yes." He sent an evil look towards Bunny. "Karaoke..."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Bunny attempted to race from the room, only to trip up as two elves tied him up with string.
"Hey, a bet is a bet, Bunny. Now I'm making you pay up."
Bunny looked like a doomed- Well, yeah, he probably was, so there is no point in using a metaphor there- Pooka as he head up to the stage, being dragged the entire way, his claws making grooves in the floor as he tried to crawl towards an exit or stop the ridiculously strong elves from tugging him across the floor.
"Give it up Bunny, they are on Caffeine."
Bunny blinked, then sighed, crossing his arms and allowing the elves to drag him, by his feet and tail, across the hall to the stage.
When he was in position, namely strapped to a chair, he managed one more glare to the ridiculously chirpy Jack before he got a sheet of music thrown in front of his face.
"Here you go. Elves, untie him! He won't try to escape..." It was an order, and one Bunny had no intention of disobeying. Heck, when Jack looked that cheerful? Nope. No way on Moon.
Then the twinkle in the winter spirit's eyes ramped up a notch.
Bunny gulped. He should never have made that bet... He looked at the sheet, and blinked.
Oh Moon, really? LAST CHRISTAS I GAVE YOU MY HEART?
What was the Frostbite thinking?
Bunny started yet another internal monologue about annoying Frostbites, as he glared at said Frostbite, accepting the- Microphone? Was that really necessary?
His internal monologue ramped up a notch as the music started. He sighed, and decided to get it over with.
"Last Christmas I gave you my heart,
but the very next day you gave it to... Pitch!?"
Wait, what!?
"What the hell is wrong with you Frost?! I thought he was already annoyed at you!"
"Keep going, Fluff-bug. It gets better..."
"… I hate you. I hate you so very much right now."
Jack gave a little shooing motion, and Bunny groaned, but continued.
This year, to save me from... my fears?
I'll instead give it to the Ground-hog-
Bunny choked, and everyone else burst out laughing when the Groundhog but a hand to his heart, with ridiculously over the top fluttery eye-lashes.
"Aww, I knew it was just some unresolved tension between us Bunn-"
"Finish that sentence mate. I dare you."
Apparently, he had a sense of self preservation and zipped his lips, instead stuffing a truffle in his mouth to avoid temptation.
"Last Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it...
Via Elf post, which might be why I lost it...
To be fair, I-" Bunny blinked at the next line... and the entire verse.
"NO WAY!. I am not serenading Pitch. I'll take another forfeit."
Jack blinked.
"Really? The other one was to Dress like an elf and do an Elf's job next Christmas, whilst leaving the elf you switched with in charge of the Warren for a week..."
Bunny weighed the pros and cons, and shrugged.
"I'll take it. There is no way I am singing this... this... drivel."
Jack pasted a wounded look onto his face.
"Bu... but... I put so much effort into that! Making it so that you would refuse to sing it and choose the other forfeit... Drivel? I am offended!"
Bunny blinked. Then blinked again.
"Why you little- Rargh!"
He leapt off the stage and started chasing after Jack, who gestured for Phil to keep the programme going, as he raced from the room, Bunny right behind him.
He needn't have bothered. When they got back, about ten minutes later-Bunny splattered in red and gold paint, glitter and with a kick me sign on his back, and Jack rolling down his sleeves with a cheerful whistle- the hall was still in hysterics, having watched the entire thing on the CCTV Jack had installed months ago in the likely event of another prank war, and that Phil had switched on as soon as they had left.
North had simply shook his head and grabbed the microphone.
"I am hoping you all will enjoy a glimpse into the daily life of Guardians, da? Well, now that Jack has joined us!"
True, some of the spirits, like the Sprite Council, were turning their noses up at it all, but Jack had the prank requests for them in his pocket, so he decided he really didn't care if they didn't want to have fun. There was a room out the back with Brandy and eggnog and other nice quiet Christmas styled things. He would have to inform them of that.
Sheesh, they're as bad as Scrooge used to be...

He took to the stage to another fierce round of cheering, and he rolled his eyes as it died down.
"Nice to know I'm a source of amusement to you all. Guess Im doing something right! So, next on the list! Anyone for Winter Wonderland? Aww, come on... You know you want to Lily..."
She glared at him, but then grinned and jumped onto the stage, accepting the microphone.
"Oh, and no surprise word changes?"
"Nope... You hit too hard."

Ten songs later- From Spectrum, Mother Nature, The Groundhog, Shady, Tooth, One of the Spring Seasonals, Two summer spirits who did a duet, A Council Sprite who was far more fun than the others on the Council, A trio of elves(who knew none of the words and just lala'd and mmm'ed their way through the song in a very impressive way) and finally A Yeti, named Ukelela, who sang a Yeti Christmas song- and Everyone was surprised when Baby Tooth came up with a bag full of the translating/voice altering magic...ey concoction.
Normally, too much of it was bad for a Fairies system, and it was normally pointless as both Jack and Tooth understood them, and the other Guardians knew basic stuff. But it would be okay for her to take enough do a song for once.
Jack quickly started the music up, placing the microphone in the stand and helping himself to a glass of punch as Baby Tooth started.

Baby Tooth grinned, starting the lyrics that her and her sisters had come up with only moments before. True, they didn't fit with the numbers, but they were short on time!

"On the first day of Christmas my Jackie gave to me
One heck of a Christmas tree..."
And so it went on... and on... and on... with rather a lot of laughter and indignant grumbling, till the final verse.
"On the 12th day of Christmas, my Jackie gave to me,
12 Frost-obsessed fairies,
Eleven garbling Yeti's,
Ten annoying Pitch's,
Nine Scary Clovers,
"Eight fashion failures,"- Yep, You again Pitch... Seriously, do you not have any other colours in your wardrobe?
The Groundhog and Mother Nature, who saw Jack's eyes take on an evil twinkle at that, decided that it would be better for their health if they just chose to ignore it.
Baby Tooth quickly continued.
"Seven shadow jumpers,
Six senile Russians,
Five Crazy Fluff-Bugs,
Three Sleepy Sandy's,
Two snoring Groundhogs and..."
Then she grinned.
"And one heck of a Sexy Jack Frost."
The entire room burst out laughing as Jack snorted his punch, then gave Baby Tooth a roguish wink.
"Me to a T, Tinkerbell."

As soon as Baby Tooth had left the stage, and they had established that there were no more volunteers, Bunny grinned and started up a chant to get Jack to do a song.
Jack sighed, but shared a look with Phil. They had thought this might happen, but Jack had not yet finished his own version of the song... Ah well, he would just wing it and hope for the best. He nodded to Phil, who gave Jack a reassuring grin, before flicking the next song backing track on. Jack grinned. Perfect... Just enough of a base rhyme scheme and tune so improvising wouldn't be too difficult.

This will be an awesome Christmas
Here is everything I need
North is giving all those presents
And Pitch is under the Christmas tree-" Jack blinked, causing Phil to pause the track.
"Wait, What?"
"Just ignore me! I'm sulking!"
"And drunk..."
"No'm not. Oh why does Rainbow Dash keep haunting me!? WHY!?"
"Ooookay then... Ahem..."
Phil switched the music back on, drawing attention away from the fact that Pitch was now having a heated, very one-sided debate, with a Plushie of some kind of horse covered with rainbows.

"I just wish that Bunny would
Leave the poor groundhog alone
All beware of Too-ooooooth
She will take the sweets from you-" He quickly spoke up, during the musical section.
"Yep, see? She just did it. Right then. Really? No-one saw that? Bloody blind old spirits... Anyway... Ahem..."
"This will be an awesome Christmas
Here is everything I need
April will help me prank the people
And then we add Old Hallows eve- Sorry Hallow, I needed a rhyme."
Hallow shrugged, silently toasting him with his punch, and Jack grinned, continuing.

"Sandy just confess already
We all know that you are gay-"
Sandy spluttered, indignantly, as Pitch snorted Punch from his nose, the pony now no-where in sight- No, there it was, in the punch bowl!
"With Assy everything can happen
Without Clover keeping him at bay,
Now every spirit's drinking spirits- " (Jack was rather impressed with himself at being able to make a Punny during an improvised song, if he had to confess.)
And they're all clearly a little drunk,
Try to avoid the stumbling Yeti's- HOLY- WATCH OUT PAUL- Oooohhh..." Jack winced, then shrugged, continuing to sing as the group Yeti's disentangled themselves from both each other and the tinsel.
Who's are all drunk as tipsy skunks(Okay, he reasoned, that was a terrible rhyme... But meh.)
Then he went for the best bit of the song. Ever.
So everyone ju-uuuuuust
Hail to the awesome Jack Frost"
Hail to Jack Frost"
- Okay, with all the laughter going on now, Jack knew that they would not appreciate any of the effort he was putting into improvising these rhymes to fit with the song, so he just decided what the hell. Might as well insult as many as possible whilst they were in a decent enough mood... To the proper tune of course, because it really was an awesome song.

"Every Elf, throw some snow on Bunny
He can't get enough of it
Spectrum just snuck out to eat some candy
Aha, I'm causing trouble for the annoying gi-"
"JACK! LANGUAGE!"
"Sorry North..."
Ice Black is sulking in some far off corner,
Coz Shady called him a snow cone
And the Groundhog's laughing at the snowman/bunny
Well, when Bunny gets free, He's on his own.
And Baby Tooth's getting high on sugar
The elves are waltzing round the room
Well, what else can I do-oooooooo?
Jack grinned roguishly and leapt from the stage, pulling Mother Nature into a spin,
All I want for Christmas is you...
She rolled her eyes at his antics, and expertly disentangled herself, sending Jack spinning into Bunny, and sending them both toppling back into the snow pile.
Jack glared at North, who was laughing, and the next verse pretty much handed itself to him.
"I won't make a list and send it
To the North pole for Saint Nick
Coz I already know dear old Santa
That crazy Russian who's missing a trick- Who takes the mick? Is a right pri- Maybe not."
Fool spoke up- "On whom we'll play a trick?"
Jack blinked, and grinned.
"Perfect! Cheers Ape."
Fool grumbled about the nickname, but Jack had already moved on, and was finishing his song with a resounding finale, joined by all of the elves, fairies and Drunken Yeti's, as well as half the hall.
"What more can I do?
All I want for Christmas is- NO! TOOTH, WATCH OUT FOR THE BUCKET OF GLUE- Oops..."
He legged out of the room, once more, followed by an furious, and very sticky, Tooth, to thunderous applause, and he cheerily popped his head back in, bowed, and took off again.
_

The Karaoke had definitely ended on a high note, Jack realised happily, as he re-entered the hall several minutes later, having disengaged himself from Tooth with nothing more than a Puppy eyed look and a can of Caffeine-which is why Spectrum now found himself being span in circles and dancing with a hyper Tooth Fairy Queen- and having prepped another three of the pranking requests.
And yep, there it was. The entire Sprite Council, Brownie Brigade and Aston-Because Shady included him in the request- Were running around looking for water after having drunk the heavily spiced eggnog. It was Beautiful...
He shared a grin with Shady, before heading over and letting them know that they could go into the back room if the atmosphere was too festive for them.
Unable to decide if he was mocking them or not- Which he most certainly would never do!- they simply grumbled and went in there.

"Hey Jack!"
Jack span, raising an eyebrow as he realised that it was one of the Summer Spirits calling him.
He flew over. "Hey... Gloss, right?"
"Yeah, we were just debating about what the best Christmas present would be. What do you think?"
Quite a few people around him had stopped to listen in, including Pitch, and Jack considered.
"Best Christmas present in the world? Hmm... A broken drum"
They all stared at him, and he blinked, giving them a questioning look.
"What? You can't beat it!"
In the few seconds silence before laughter, once again, ensued, Pitch's snort was heard throughout the room, which caused Jack to give a very gleeful fist-pump.
"Aha! Pitch Laughed! I am forgiven!"
"Frost, I fail to see the logic in that!"
"Of course you do."
"Yes, And?"
"Exactly!"
"... What on Earth are you talking about?" In all fairness, he had drunk quite a bit by now so his mental faculties really were not up to par. Jack felt almost guilty taking advantage of it. Almost...
"About how you forgive me for using you as a prompt in a Joyful festive song!"
"I... Forgive you?"
"See, you just said it. You all heard him, right?"
Several grinning nods were seen, and Pitch glared at Jack.
"I really hate you sometimes, you know that? Like really hate you. With a passion."
"I know. I get that a lot."
"Hey, you got any more Christmassy Jokes?"
This was one of the autumn spirits, and Bunnymund who had head over to see what the fuss was about, snorted.
"This is Jack were talking about. He has a joke for every occasion..."
"Sure do. Lets see, Christmas... Okay, Why does Santa go down the Chimney?"
"Why?"
"Because it soots him."
"That was terrible Frostbite."
"That's why Christmas Jokes are funny!"
"Da, more funny that Easter Jokes!" North butt in, having head over, and Jack grinned.
"You have to be 'Yolking'! Those jokes are Eggselent!"
"Oh Moon, TOOTH! SANDY! JACK IS MAKING THE PUNS! WE MUST RESTRAIN HIIM!"
Problem was, the other two had already taken cover, and North sighed, turning.
"Looking like it's me and you Bunn- Bunny?"
"Err... Sorry mate, I'm... err... busy."
"You are hiding behind Turkey?"

Jack grinned as he responded.
"Only because he's chicken... Sorry, that Joke was foul..."
There were grins and giggles coming from almost everyone in the area as the drama unfolded, and North sighed.
"Sandy! Earmuffs please!"
Almost immediately, golden dream-sand earmuffs appeared over North's ears, and Jack sniggered.
"Hey, guys? What do you call a Santa wearing ear muffs?"
"What?"
"Anything you like. He can't hear you."
More laughter.
"Anyway, Gloss. You know any?"
"Err... Oh, who delivers presents for Cats? Santa Claws."
Then one of her friends spoke up.
"Where do snowmen go to dance? Snowballs!"
"Who beats his chest and swings from Christmas cake to Christmas Cake? Tarzipan!"
The hall filled with jokes, to the point where Jack started flying around with a microphone to get them all.
"What do you call people who are afraid of Santa? Claustrophobic!"
"What do you call a penguin in the Sahara Desert? Lost!"
Then it really began to get fun, as Bunny joined in.
"What does Jack Frost eat for Breakfast? Frosties." Grins from everyone, including Jack, and Bunny continued. "What does Jack Frost say to Snowmen?"
Jack grinned as he interrupted.
"Personally? I'd say have an Ice day!"
Bunny grumbled about not being able to embarrass Jack no matter the occasion, before shouting back over to North.
"I've already told you, North! A green candle burns longer, because Green is better!"
"No! Is Red Candle which burns longer!"
"Green!"
"Red!"
"Green!"
"Red!"
Jack blinked, shouting to shut them both up.
"Oi! First, Blue is better than Red and Green combined, so yeah. And two, neither would burn longer than the other. Want to know why?"
"Go for it Frostbite."
"Because Candle's grow shorter, not longer!"
There was more laughter as North and Bunny's facial expressions immediately morphed to looks of downcast glum-ness, and Jack subtly returned Shady's high five.
That marked an end to the jokes, as pretty much everyone had run out, and so it turned back into dancing and music, at which point Jack was accosted by several chef's, from various places throughout the spirit world, who were determined to wrangle his recipes out of him.
To which he told them that he would be auctioning his classical ones, on the fifteenth of January at Mother Natures Summer Outhouse, in order to fund his prank crusades and 'various other causes'... But he would never reveal his seven most treasured and holy recipe's. And no, he would not give them a hint. Oh, and the best thing to put into a cake? Your teeth.
They shook their heads, amused, at the abrupt end to the conversation, and took off, in order to better prepare to outbid the others at the auction in a few weeks time, deciding to ignore the fact that they would be funding spirit world-wide chaos.

About ten minutes later, there was more entertainment to be had as Tooth managed to stop North from stealing more cookies, yet again, and Jack head over to help out, sighing and shaking his head at the huge Guardian.
"Thought for you North... Desserts is stressed spelt backwards."
Shady quickly interrupted with a very fake cough.
*Cough*... sugarhigh... *cough cough.*
Jack shook his head, grinning, before he turned back to North.
"So yeah, You'll have to do something pretty damn impressive to get more cookies, seeing as you're on enough of a sugar high as it is..."
North pouted and slumped down in the chair for a couple of seconds, before he suddenly grinned and shrugged.
"Ah well. Knock knock!"
Jack was instantly suspicious, but went along with it.
"Who's there?"
"Arthur."
"... Arthur who?"
"Arthur any more cookies left?"
Jack blinked. Then blinked again Then the corner of his mouth twitched, despite him trying to stop it.
"Damn it North..." Jack sighed and handed him back the plate of cookies. After all, as the Guardian of Fun, it was his solemn duty to reward a joke that quick. No matter how terrible.

Jack and the rest of he Guardians were then roped into a conversation about various parties in the past and the amusing things which had happened during them.
The Groundhog nodded, as they all discussed the most interesting parties they had attended, before speaking up.
"Speaking of Christmas parties, did you hear about that one a few years ago North? At Spectrum's place? That Shadow fellow set off loads of fireworks, crackers, and brought a load of balloons which promptly exploded..."
Jack grinned, sharing a laughter filled look with Bunnymund who was trying not to smirk.
"Well..." Jack said, shrugging, "Party must have went with a Bang..."
The Groundhog simply rolled his eyes, stuffing in another truffle, as the others all smiled, laughed or shook their heads with a grin.
_

Abut half an hour later, and it was early enough on Christmas day for the party to have started winding down, and Clover and Aspen stole Jack away for a moment.
"Hey, Jack? Reckon you could play 'White Christmas' for us? We wanted a slow dance, and you do it best..."
"Plus we didn't want to leave before making you play something." Aspen broke in, with a grin.
Jack gave them a grin, and nodded.
"Sure thing, Iceman. Nice of you. Actually Clo, there's a Piano in the next room...?"
"That'd be great."
Jack motioned to Phil to let him know he was heading out for a bit, and led the others into one of the rooms off the hall, sitting down at a Piano which was always there for just this purpose.
"Just White Christmas?"
"For now..."
Jack grinned, but started to play the intro, before starting to sing.

"I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where the treetops glisten, and children listen,
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write,
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white..."

As the music came to an end, applause sounded out and Jack yelped as he almost fell from the stool, turning to see that the entrance to the room was pretty much full, with everyone listening in.
"Phil? I thought you were playing music out there!?"
Phil huffed, speaking in Yeti, which North translated for everyone else.
"As the leader of the 'Jack Fanclub', it is my duty to showcase your talent. Argue with me. It will be your downfall..."
Jack blinked.
"Why you sneaky... sly... I've been tracking you down for months! How did you... But I-!"
Phil legged it from the room, but not before Jack managed to hit him with a blue paint bomb. Honestly, was there nothing Jack was not prepared for!?
Jack was about to follow-and was, within seconds, fully armed with two blasters, belts of paint bombs and a slingshot- when North stopped him, grabbing him and sitting him back down by the Piano.
"Jack, make war later, Da? You have requests!"
He was back to his usual unarmed self in even less time, and no-one had any idea where he stashed everything. Seriously, was that some kind of magic?

Three songs later, and Jack said that maybe it was enough, considering how early it was.
True, it was early on Christmas day now, there was even more snow falling, as Jack had decided earlier to have a bit more of a snowy day for the elves and so had started a light snowfall.
Bunny blinked as he realised how thick the snow blanket was.
"Hey, Frostbite!? At this rate, we'll be stuck in here till at least nine in the morning!"
"... Oops?"
"Don't you think you'd better stop it now?"
"Why? Portals and stuff mean everyone can get back okay."
"Because... Well, because..."
Then Bunny slumped, and sighed.
"You know what? Because of all this Christmassy Spirit and stuff, why don't you let me tell you In a way which is a bit more creative!?"
Then he started singing, much to everyone's astonishment.

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But you are all so delightful
But we're stuck here with the snow cone
So stop the snow, Stop the snow, stop the snow

We can thank the li'l blighta,-(Ooh well that was new...)
Oh, and keep him away from the lighter- (Could have been worse rhymes...)
You'd better not leave him alone,
And stop the snow, stop the snow, stop the snow

I get it, Christmas is meant to be whiter,-(This was actually some pretty damn impressive stuff!)
And I'm sure that fresh snow is a sight, huh?- (Jack decided to stop his internal commentary.)
But seriously, enough with the snow
My feet are goin' numb and I'm cold

You are so irritating
So Frostbite is your naming.
Yes this song is about you,
SO STOP THE FREAKING SNOW ALREADY... Dude.

Jack blinked, properly taken aback-which did not happen often, which was why Tooth was quick to catch a photo of his face-proper jaw drop and everything-.
"Wow... That was actually... rather-well, more like very- impressive. Like seriously... Wow. It even rhymed..."
Bunny shrugged, raising an eyebrow at the stunned looks he was getting from most of the spirits in the room.
"Why, Thank you... That mean you'll stop the snow now?"
"... No."
"Darn..."
"But hey! I can think of a song about you too!" He grinned, sitting back at the Piano.

"No! Frostbite, don't-!" Too late. Within seconds, everyone recognised the intro to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

"Bunny the Pink-nosed Pooka,
Had a fluffy Cotton tail,
And he always thought that Christmas
Was such a huge and Epic fail...

And all the other spirits,
Gave up after a long while,
In trying to get him to realise,
That Christmas should be done in style!

Then one foggy Christmas eve,
The Burgess kids came to say,
Bunny with your ears so long,
Can't you hear the children's song?

And then Bunnymund realised,
Maybe Christmas wasn't so bad,
And that maybe he could like it...
Possibly... Just a tad?"

Jack bowed to the applause, and grinned at Bunny, who was simply sighing and shaking his head.
"Honestly, the next thing ya know, our lives'll become a musical, mate..."
An excited squeal came from the doorway, and they turned to see a few Yeti's peering in, who promptly vanished when they realised they had been spotted snooping.
Jack blinked.
"Hey... Did Kevin have a voice recorder!? KEVIN! ANDY! CHRIS! FRANK! GET BACK HERE YOU OVERGROWN FUR-BALLS!"
He had legged it from the room, already re-suited into Rambo mode, before anyone could so much as blink, and North sighed, clearing his throat.
"Well, it is my belief that war is about to erupt. So I am afraid that now might be good time to all conclusion to party, da?"
Laughter was heard as the group started splitting up, only to be handed leaflets, by dozens of rushing messenger elves with a small note attached.
The note read: "If you are reading this, then either the Pole has exploded and I'm dealing with it in some fashion, a war has erupted for some reason and I am in the middle of it, there is some other problem or disaster which requires my attention or I have annoyed Pitch, Bunny and Fool so much they have teamed up against me. No, wait... That would never work for a multitude of reasons, so just ignore that last bit.
Hope you all had a good time, and Merry Christmas!
Jack "

And the leaflet was for a company, namely that which Jack had mentioned wanting to create earlier that night, called X-treme.

X-TREME!
Providing pranks since 10pm, last night!

Want vengeance? Want to Annoy? Want to irritate to the Xtreme?
Then contact Jack Frost! Or, if that is not possible for any reason, contact someone who can contact Jack Frost for you! (The latter option is not recommended for those who want a nefarious, undercover plot).
Subtle vengeance and Secret meetings are catered for.
Blackmail material acquired for an additional fee.
For a non-obligatory quote, again get ahold of Jack Frost in some manner or other.

The spirit world was changing. They could all sense it...
_

It was a couple of hours before the Guardians once again had the Pole to themselves, and it was even longer before everything was cleared away and gifts had been opened. The most memorable of which had been either Jack's gift to Sandy (a Clock which never stopped ringing until you completed a complicated Mathematics equation. It even had little arms so it could remove earmuffs! And it was virtually indestructable... Jack was so proud of his baby/creation, and was so busy sending it adoring looks, he missed the horrified looks everyone else was shooting at it.) or Jack's gift to the world at large, namely putting his pranking abilities up for hire... It was terrifying. Absolutely terrifying... Though the Guardians all got the service for free, so there was that.
North had left first, and his snoring could be heard throughout the entire Pole, not that the Yeti's would know, they were all asleep too, as were most of the elves who were not still working off their caffeine high.
Sandy was actually wide awake, though they were not sure how he was not at least tired in some way, and Bunny and Tooth were falling asleep on their feet.
Even Jack was yawning.
When everything had eventually been sorted and cleared away, Tooth crashed out on the Sofa, and was asleep within moments, Sandy had waved a cheery goodbye and set out to do his dream sand rounds, and Bunny had also crashed at the Pole, though he had managed to make it back to his own bed.
Jack had decided that, considering the snoring, the smell of cleaner, the hyper elves, the piles of fur-which were Yeti's who had not bothered to try and make it to their own beds- and the fact that his own home was only an orb throw away, had managed to make it to his own home-as well as throwing in a quick half hour visit to the wide-awake kids in the orphanage and in Burgess, whilst simultaneously hiding how tired he was and managing to keep names and faces straight, whilst handing out gifts- had also managed to wish a Happy Christmas to all the Yeti's he passed in the halls, said good morning to Clover, Aston, Lily, Gale and Flow, who had all decided to accept Jack's offer and sleep in their rooms at his place for the night instead of taking individual orbs home, and were still yawning as they crossed him in the halls.
He finally made it to his own room and sank onto his own bed, with an exhausted sigh, feeling himself falling asleep before he had even shut his eyes.
Then he grinned. Best. Party. Ever...
And he fell asleep, only to dream about an alarm clock which never shut up.
Vindictive much, Sandy?

So... Yeah. Not the most creative ending, I know. And again, I am so sorry for the delay, but I hope you all enjoyed? Now that I'm back into the swing of it, I should hopefully have a chapter up a week. If my teachers don't give me more coursework and essays to do *sigh*
Anyways, Thanks to Killuaxme, who helped to come up with, and inspire, quite a bit of this fic through all of his PM's and supportive reviews-He was especially helpful in providing content for the songs!-, and thanks to all of you who have been supportive over the last few months. Hopefully, you all enjoyed, and please let me know what you think, and if you had any particular favourite bits/songs/jokes, or if there was something you didn't like that much.

Till next time then guys! *hugs*
