Chapter 2: The Big Four
The five Guardians stayed quiet as Jack's questions still lingered in the room. North was the first to speak, "Jack, there is something we need to tell you. It's about the last winter spirit."
At this news, the teen's eyes widen, "There was a winter spirit, before me?"
"Yeah mate, there was," Bunny answered, "And he will go down in history alongside the other Seasonal Council members." Everyone nodded in agreement with this statement.
"Who are the Seasonal Council members and what did they do that was so grand," Jack asked now becoming frustrated. Just then North stood up from his seat and walked over to a book shelf in the far right corner. After a minute he returned to his spot next to Aster and sat a book down in his lap. The book was thick and heavy looking with a brown fabric cover. "Jack I think it is best for you to seat in chair also," he suggested pointing to the chair in front of him. Even through the pale boy was mad, frustrated, and confused, he still did as he was told and sat down.
Using one of his large hands, North wiped dust off the front of the front of the book, revealing the cover. Stitched into it were four gold symbols. The first symbol was the sun, next was a flower, then a snowflake, and last a maple leaf. The markings were made out as if in a specific order. Everyone turned towards North as he started to read from a few pages from the book. "Long ago, the Man on the Moon summoned four spirits to become four special Guardians. These spirits were more powerful than any other. These Guardians were called the Seasonal Council members or The Big Four. Each member represented one of the four seasons. Vine was the spirit of Spring, Rose was the spirit of Summer, Silver was the spirit of Winter, and Huntson was the spirit of Autumn. The council members all help give life to Mother Earth right next to Manny.
One day fire, darkness, despair and fear started to spread around the world. This was ruining everything the Seasonal Council and Manny worked for. They soon learned that the cause for this was a dangerous group who went by The Omegas. Heat, Feral, Red, and Bone each brought mayhem to this world. They thought Manny made the wrong decision on choosing the Council members and wanted their revenge. The Big Four confronted the deadly spirits about this, but that only sparked the fuse for a vicious battle. These brave spirits gave their lives in order to stop the Omegas and banish them to a mental prison."
As North finished the story and closed the book silence fell over the group. Realization slowly crept its way over to Jack. He was the new winter spirit. He was the next Silver. "Jack, ya know what this means right," Aster asked.
"Ya I kind of figure it out Kangaroo." Even though this wasn't a time for jokes, Jack needed something to lighten the mood. The others must have sensed this and decided to remain quiet. "So I'm the next Silver. What about the others," Jack asked.
"Well, we know where they are. We just need to bring them here and tell them what's going on," Tooth said.
Jack nodded his head, "Who are they by the way?" Sandy pulled a small piece of paper from his coat pocket and handed it over to the others.
Tooth read the first name, "Rapunzel Corona."
Bunnymund read the next name, "Merida Dunbroch."
North read the last name, "And Hiccup Haddock III." They all looked at the fun loving spirit waiting for some kind of reaction.
The pale teen looked back at them and smirked, "Well, North looks like you better get the sleigh ready, 'cause we're going for a bumpy ride."
Okay, so I just wanted to say thank you to all of those who have liked and followed this story, and say that more chapters are underway.
