In any other situation, Jack would have laughed and made a sarcastic comment about what was happening. However, in this situation, Jack was wishing that he was invisible (and that was probably the only time that he had actually wished for that). And while Jamie's eyes were scanning him upside down, Jack was trying his best to make a no-idea-what-your-talking-about face.
"Jack Frost? Kid, in case you haven't noticed, I'm not a myth". When he said it, Jack felt his heart break. He was saying that HE wasn't real. And he was telling that to his first believer.
Jamie, on the other hand, didn't seem very convinced. He turned to face Tooth.
"Are you the Tooth Fairy?" Toothiana blinked a few times before answering.
"I don't believe in her" She said with a dry voice and holding back tears.
Now the kids looked disappointed. Feeling guilty, Jack decided to try and say something cheerful.
"Look, kid" Jack started as he put a hand in Jamie's shoulder. "If it makes you feel any better, I believe in Jack Frost and the Tooth Fairy"
"How can you believe in Jack Frost if you just said that he was a myth?" Pippa angrily demanded. And with that said, they all turned to follow the rest for the scavenger hunt.
The rest of the Guardians watched them walk away feeling terrible with themselves.
"Well… that went just great" said Bunny sarcastically.
"I'm telling you… lying to them is the worst thing I've ever done" Tooth said as she wiped away tears.
"Really? And not going out to collect teeth yourself for 440 years is not?" said Jack with a little smirk.
"Okay, second worst thing I've ever done" said Tooth as she glared him and gave away a few giggles.
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up Jack" she added.
"Well, I am the Guardian of Fun. Cheering is just part of my daily job" Jack said with a smile.
"Oh, you tov can kiss vhenever you vant" North said with a giant smile on his face.
Jack and Tooth blushed.
"We are not going to kiss. We are just friends" Jack quickly blurted.
"And teammates" Tooth also quickly added.
Bunny and North shared a look before laughing.
"All right, let's go. I don't want to miss this scavenger hunt, it reminds me of Easter" Bunny said, still laughing.
"Bunny's right, maybe Sandy is vating for us there" said North.
And with that said, they followed the rest of the kids.
"All right guys, WHO´S READY TO DO SOME SCAVENGER HUNTING?!" Broody yelled with the help of the megaphone.
Once again, a few weak "yeah" were heard. Jack was beginning to worry about that.
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Jack whispered to a girl standing next to him. She had medium height, dark brown hair dyed with blonde streaks and dark brown eyes.
She turned around to see him, surprised.
"Um… you talking to me?" she asked shyly. Jack nodded.
"Oh, well, okay" she said blushing.
"I'm new to this whole S.A.W thing and I suppose that people here come to have fun. But no one seems to like the idea of the activities. Can you tell me why?" Jack asked.
"Oh, believe me, it used to be fun. But then they started to put too many ridiculous safety measures that killed the fun. Even the king of the nerds can agree with that" she said.
"Ridiculous safety measures?" Jack asked confused.
"Yeah, from don't go cricket hunting because you will get attacked by a spider to campfire songs that only talk about rainbows and not stories" she said sadly.
"Huh. Ok, thanks. By the way, what's your name?" Jack asked.
"Rosi Zendem. I already know yours, Jackson Overland" she said with a crazy smile.
"Um… Okay?" said Jack while he took a few steps back. A light bulb got switched in his head.
"Hey, Rosi, I suppose that they have planned all the activities now right?"
"No. Actually they plan all of that during the day, and then they leave a schedule before all the kids go home for the next day" she answered.
"And I suppose that that schedule is in a computer right?" Jack guessed. He was starting to have a mischievous idea.
Rosi nodded. Jack smiled mischievously. He had an idea on how to make the camp fun again and that included the fact that he was probably about to do the craziest thing he had ever done. And he was going to need help from the rest of the Guardians.
