AN: And first chapter...
Chapter 1:
Jack Frost sighed, though laughing as the wind suddenly tossed him up. He was bored. After the fight with Pitch, all of the other guardians had gotten busier, and hadn't got the time for him.
You'd think they would be more grateful to the Spirit that had saved them from losing all the believers.
He felt a strong presence behind him, and winced inwardly.
Mother Nature.
Not good.
Jack turned around, feigning ignorance and surprise. "Mother Nature! How're you?!"
Nature crossed her arms, not at all impressed as she arched a delicate eyebrow. "Frost." Her tone was dull. Jack sighed theatretically.
"What? Aren't you happy to see me?"
Her tone remained flat. "There is something I need you to check out."
Jack frowned. "Shouldn't you send Hiccup to do that? After all, he's the one who examines things."
"No." Nature sighed. "He's busy cleaning up the mess that you and Merida made during Summer in Australia." Jack protested, waving his arms around, anger flaring up at his opposite.
"It was her fault! She attacked me first, I swear."
Nature sighed. She had heard almost the exact same thing from Merida herself. "Fine. But you're going to check out the source."
"And me because?"
"Because I want to check if this man would like to be recruited as a Winter Spirit."
Jack froze, looking at her with wide eyes. "What?"
Nature rolled her eyes. "He was seen performing acts to do with Winter, and I need you to ask him. His companions may not be so…welcoming, just to warn you."
"Ok then…" Jack shrugged. He didn't have anything better to do. "Who'm I going to talk to again?"
Jack looked around. Ninjago City…seriously?
He sighed as he looked around, flying around until he reached a forest, which should not be surprising, except for the fact that it was snowing heavily and he was sure it was Summer…and he certainly didn't cause it…
Jack flew down closer, seeing a man wrapped up in a white ninja suit with shurikens in his hands, flinging both of them at some moving targets, freezing them instantly on contact.
"Whoa." Jack breather, moving closer to see, only for the ninja-man to suddenly turn to him.
"Who are you?" He asked, in a calm ordinary voice, as if floating people were something that he dealt with everyday. Jack blinked. He can see me?
"You can see me?" Jack asked.
The man nodded. "Yes." Something about his answer was very formal and proper, unlike Jack's free way of talking. He tilted his head. "Why are you here, and who are you?"
"I'm Jack." Jack introduced. "Jack Frost."
"Jack Frost?" Again, the tilted head. "The myth?"
Jack felt indignant. Even after all of this, he was still slightly touchy about the fact that people could now believe in him and see him. "Excuse me. The 'myth' is right, and I'm standing right here in front of you!"
The man frowned. "My circuits must've gone wrong. I must get Jay to look at them."
"What?!" Jack asked, completely flabbergasted. "Are we on the same side here?"
The man titled his head once more. "I do not know."
Jack raised a hand to slap his forehead. "Ok. Back up. Are you a Winter Spirit?"
"No." The answer was direct.
Jack was stunned and slightly flabbergasted. "Then how do you do that?!" He pointed at the frost covering the tree.
"The….." The man answered.
"You're a…ninja?" Now this all made sense. The name: Ninjago. Still slightly weird though.
"Yes. I'm sorry if it disappoints you."
Jack shook his head. "Um, no. Don't worry about it. I'll just…leave."
And with that, he turned and flew away.
