A/N: Nessy learns Jack's backstory.
Ch. 11- Jack Frost's Backstory
*Early February *
I am sitting on a rock watching Bunny hurry around as he gets the paints ready for March. "You running around is giving me a headache," I voice.
"Sorry Nessy, but I've got a lot to do now that Easter is almost here," he says.
Jack then flies in and lands next to me. "He's ignoring you for Easter huh," he voices.
"Yea," I say smiling at him slightly. "I don't mind it's important to him. Besides I'll probably be doing the same thing near October," I say.
"True," he says. He then goes over to Bunny and says "Hi Kangaroo."
"Bloody show pony why do you always show up in the worst of times," Bunny mutters darkly.
"Maybe to check on you and make sure you aren't stressing yourself out. Besides it's not nice to ignore a beautiful guest such as Nessy here," Jack voices.
I chuckle at him and roll my eyes. "Sorry to both of you, but you know how I am with Easter and Nessy understands. Besides it'll soon be over after March," he says.
Jack comes back over to me and says "I promise I tired to make him take a break."
"It's fine. He'll take a break when he wants one," I say.
"Yea, he's pretty stubborn," Jack says.
"Not the only one in this group. By the way Jack I'm curious about something," I say.
"What it is," he asks.
"How'd you become a guardian," I ask.
"Well that is a long story, you sure you want to hear it," Jack asks.
I nod and say "I'm sure."
"Ok. Well I used to be human as a start, about 300 years ago or more. I've lost count. But anyways I really liked to pull pranks then and still do now. I took my sister out to a pond near our house and we went ice skating. But the ice of the frozen pond started to crack, so naturally I made up a game of Hopscotch and used my staff and saved my little sister, but I lost my own life by doing so. The Man in the Moon, otherwise known as MiM turned me into Jack Frost the guardian of winter," he says.
"Wow that's cool. I didn't know you liked pranks too. We should team up one day," I say.
"Oh boy," Bunny mutters darkly. "I'm taking a break now, just so you two don't get any ideas," Bunny says glaring at us.
"Bunny we'd never prank you," I say with a mischievous sparkle in my eyes.
"That is an obvious lie. I can see it in your eyes Nessy," he says.
"Well you're fun to prank sorry Kangaroo," Jack voices.
"I am not a bloody Kangaroo," Bunny yells getting fed up with Jack. Jack chuckles and starts flying around. "Come back here you bloody show pony, so I can kill you," he yells at Jack.
I start laughing at their antics and soon I can barely breath because of them. I notice when I look up they've both stopped. "What," I say looking at them curiously.
"We've never seen you laugh like that before," Jack voices.
"It's very pretty. You're smile when you making it is beautiful too," Bunny observes, not realizing what he's saying.
I blush darkly and I can hear Jack mutter quietly to Bunny "You're making it obvious again Kangaroo." Bunny then starts blushing too and I laugh at them again.
I look at the time and then say "I should head back. Almost time for dinner."
"Alright Nessy," Jack says as he lands next to me. He pats my head and I glare at him.
"Bye sheela," Bunny says as he hops over. I give them both a hug before I loop off towards the familiar portals to the world's. I go through the door shaped like a pumpkin and go home. I go inside my house and eat with my parents. I soon go to sleep and dream of living in the Warren.
A/N: Looks like they are all three getting closer to each other.
