"Now, let's get down to business" said North. He was holding a piece of paper.
Before Jack and Tooth could say something (or at least react), North started to read the paper. It was a note from Manny.
"My dear Guardians:
Now that you have all woken up, it's time to settle a few things. The house in which you are staying this week has been abandoned for quite some time, so no one will try to bother you about it, people think it's haunted. You have all awaken in 5 different rooms: you will be sleeping there. These rooms have a closet, in which you will find more appropriate clothes to wear.
Now, the summer activity week. You are all a group of teenagers on a gap year, and you have decided to spend some quality time together. You are signed up as Nicolas Clausen, Aster Logan, Tiana Wingflight, Sanderson Dreamlake and Jackson Overland. Jack will help adjust you to human life.
The spell will be broken at Saturday midnight."
For a moment, everyone was silent.
"Well, he is right about the clothes" said Tooth in an attempt to break to silence.
It was true. North was still wearing his clothes and they were a lot bigger than him now; Sandy was wearing a yellow onesie; Tooth was wearing an elegant sari; Bunny only had a pair of pants on, along with some wrist bracelets. Jack was the only one who still wore the same: blue hoodie, brown pants and no shoes.
"Okay… vell, I think that ve should change and then ve reunite here again so Jack teaches us hov to… adapt" North said awkwardly.
Before Jack could complain, they had all went back to their respective rooms. Sighting, he also went back to his. "I guess that also applies to me" he thought.
In his bedroom, Jack opened the closet and was quite surprised to find that there were at least 15 shirts, 15 pairs of pants (there were more short than long) and Jack´s main enemy: shoes.
"Wow, Manny, did you go shopping or something?" he asked out aloud.
Jack carefully took out a plain white t-shirt, some black shorts and the hateful shoes. He then proceeded to take off his hoodie and sadly noticed that the frost patterns on it had disappeared. He then proceeded to put the clothes on in order to join the others down stairs.
"Okay then, Manny says that I need to teach you guys how behave towards normal people, so let's get this thing over with" Jack said, facing the Guardians.
"It can´t be that hard actually… I mean, we have interacted with Jamie and his friends" Tooth said.
"Yeah, but don't you remember what happen with Sophie?" Bunny complained.
"Oh, come on, you vere going to throv a flying disc to her, Bunny!" North jumped into Tooth's defense.
"For the last time, IT'S A BOOMERANG!"
"This is starting to get out of hand" said Jack with a grin. Sandy was laughing silently. When he seemed to calm down a bit, he signaled Jack with his hands.
"I think that's enough" Sandy said with sign language.
"ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!" Jack had to scream. Who knew that Russian and Australian accents could be so loud?
Bunny and North stopped fighting. Tooth seemed to be a bit surprised by the screaming.
"To make this quick: when you talk to someone, don't make comments about if they are in the naughty list, or how many teeth they have lost or if they have brushed/floss them. Also, don't brag about how good you are at something. Did I make myself clear?"
They all nodded.
"And please don't ask if Christmas is better than Easter or Easter is better than Christmas" Jack received glares from Bunny and North. But they ended up nodding in agreement.
"All right, I think that's everything. But I do have one question: What about food? Or if we need to buy something? Did Manny give us any money?" Jack asked with a worried tone.
"I thought I heard that you had ONE question" Tooth said with a smile.
Jack gave her a look.
"Manny left me vith all that Jack, vill be fine" North assured him.
"Um, guys? Aren't we so supposed to meet the other campers now?" Bunny asked.
Everyone fell silent. They really didn't know that. Sandy called for their attention by waving his hands though the air.
"The camp starts tomorrow" he said.
"How do you know that?" they all asked.
Sandy gave them a "seriously?" look, and pointed to the calendar that was hanging by the fireplace.
"Ah, ok, where did that come from?"
Sandy face-palmed, while Jack laughed.
This was going to be a very interesting week.
