The sun rose and let the fallen snow shimmer. Jack Frost had his hands in this work for two hours before sunrise. He was floating over the roofs of the houses in the little city Burgess. His first believer, Jamie, was living here and he wanted to visit him again today. His blue ice darted over the city when he saw a flash of light pink.
"Wind, take me down to the forest!" Jack yelled.
The wind obeyed and let him fly down. Just then he was hit by something black. It was black sand. It caused Jack to fall from the sky and to land hard on the ground. He let out a grunt full of pain. The grass and bushes beside him were rustling.
"Oh my gosh. Ehm... excuse me. I know that you may not see me, but... are you okay?" he heard a female voice.
He turned his head in the voice's direction and saw a beautiful young girl walking towards him. She had long, about waist length, pure blond hair with some hints of light (dusty/rose) pink. Her lips were full and her skin very light and pale. She was tall with a thin body and a bit curvy and wearing long dress made out of pink flower petals. Her glistening sky-blue eyes were looking at Jack worried. The last named couldn't do anything else than to stare at her beauty.
"C-can you see me?"
"Yes."
"A-and you can hear me?"
Jack answered her question again with a yes. The girl smiled widely.
"Finally. I slowly felt like I would be a ghost to the other humans."
Jack realized that he had seen this girl before. He remembered the glowing crystal and the picture the moon showed. It was of her.
"What's your name?"
"Rey Deeliah. And you?"
Before Jack could answer, someone else did it for him. Someone he knew too well.
"Jack Frost. How nice to see you again!" a dark voice said.
"Pitch!" Jack said angry.
"You remember me? Should I feel honored?"
Jack shot some icicles in Pitch's direction.
"Guess not. Still angry with me? Oh come on.

I see that you have company. My what a beautiful pray."
Rey panicked. A shadow grew in front her. The shadow stretched its hand out and wanted to touch Rey's cheek. But she backed away.
"Don't touch me. You're evil. And you're killing me!"
"No my dear. I wouldn't even harm a beauty like you a bit. So don't be afraid, okay?"
Pitch made more steps in her direction. She backed up more and more until her back was pressed against a tree. Jack clenched his jaw and his grip on his staff tightened. He wasn't going to let Pitch harm the new chosen guardian. He swung his staff and shot more icicles. Pitch retreated after he got some hits.
"Don't think that I will give up. I will come back and then she's mine and the whole world will fear me!"
Rey whimpered. She slid to the ground and just sat there with a terrified look. Jack got closer and embraced her with his arms.
"Why is this happening? And why me?" she whined.
"Don't worry I will help you. Let's introduce you to my friends. They want to get to know you. They will like you."
He brought her to the North Pole. On the way there she fell asleep.
