This is set roughly 1 year after the movie, so Sophie can talk a bit better and Jamie and Jack have gotten to know each other better
Jack laughed as the wind tossed playfully through the air. He sped through the air, heading back to Burgess after a long summer. He glided over the clouds and flipped joyfully, laughing. He approached the small town and let a light snowfall begin. He flew over his lake, but froze when a shadow was cast over him. He turned and saw a cloud of black sand.
He gasped and flew backwards, but the sand rushed at him and pinned his arms to his sides, trapping him. Pitch stood on the cloud and laughed. "You are so predictable Frost, always returning to the same pathetic town, visiting the same stupid children." Pitch mocked. Jack heard shouting from the forest below him, signaling Jamie's arrival.
"Jack! I saw the snow! Where are you?" Jamie called from the ground. "You will not hurt him!" Jack shouted, shooting ice at the cloud the was holding Pitch aloft, causing him to begin to fall, forcing him to release Jack so he could use that sand to fly. "And, who will stop me once you're gone!" Pitch growled, shooting more sand at Jack and covering him in darkness. Jack shot ice at random, but the sand just moved out of the way and filled back in, leaving him trapped.
He felt the sand pressing in on him, and he felt sharp pains all throughout his body, then it was gone. He fell through the air, fighting off unconsciousness and hit the ground hard, but something felt off. He knew the snow was only just starting, so there shouldn't be much, but he was almost completely submerged. He heard a loud thud next to him and scrambled backwards when he saw the huge stick land next to him.
He was even more confused when he realized everything else seemed much too big. He stood up and walked to the large stick and gasped when he realized it was his staff. "Oh my god, what happened! How did my staff get so big!" He exclaimed. He laid his hand on the worn wood and was surprised again when it began the shrink. He watched, amazed, as it shrunk down so it was again the correct size for him, then he heard footsteps and fell backwards as a very familiar boot landed right next to him.
Jamie stood over Jack and looked at where his staff had seemingly disappeared. "What…" Jamie said, puzzled, as he looked at the indent in the snow. "I just saw his staff here…" He continued, looking around in confusion. "Jamie! I'm down here! Hey!" Jack shouted, trying to get the child's attention. He groaned when he realized Jamie couldn't hear him. He flew up in front of him and hovered a little ways in front of Jamie's nose so Jamie could hopefully see him.
Jamie squinted at him, but then gasped as he realized what he was seeing. "Jack? What happened?" Jamie said, falling over to sit in the snow. Jack shrugged as he landed on Jamie's knee. "I was ambushed by Pitch right before you showed up, and when you got here, we fought, but then I was surrounded by the sand and this happened." He explained. Jamie looked at him in confusion. "I can barely hear you, did you say Pitch did this?" Jack nodded, then almost toppled off of Jamie's knee when he was suddenly dizzy.
He fell onto his knees and clutched his head. "Jack! Are you ok?" Jamie asked, concerned. Jack just tried to wave him off, but Jamie didn't believe him. He picked up a protesting Jack and started heading back to his house. "You are not ok! We have to find a way to contact the other guardians." Jamie said, as he hurried through the forest, setting Jack on his shoulder so he could hear the young guardian better. "Really Jamie, i'm fine, just tired and dizzy." Jack said, grabbing onto the fabric of Jamie's Jacket as he ran home.
He ran through the door and headed upstairs to his room, telling his mom there still wasn't enough snow to play much as he went. He only stopped when he finally ran into the room and shut the door. He picked up Jack again, and Jack didn't have the energy to complain anymore, he just wanted to find a cold place to curl up and sleep. "Jack, how am I supposed to contact the others? It's not like I can just send them a letter." Jamie asked, realizing the flaw in his plan. Jack smiled at that. "Actually, you can. I need you to write a letter to Santa."
Jamie finished writing and addressing the letter when he looked over and saw Jack had fallen asleep on his desk. Jamie smiled and gently picked the Guardian of fun up, moving towards the window. He set the spirit down on the window sill and slightly opened the window, allowing a cool breeze to slip through. Jack smiled in his sleep and rolled over, closer to the source of the breeze.
Jamie sent the letter and stumbled back to his room, it was getting late. He didn't even see Sophie until he bumped into her. "Jamie? Is Jack here? There snow." She said excited. "Um, yea, he's here. We can see him in the morning, ok Soph?" He said. She squealed in excitement and hugged him. "Yay! Jack-Jacks here!" She said, then ran off. "So, she's excited." Jamie heard a voice from his shoulder. He jumped and looked over, seeing Jack sitting casually on the edge of his shoulder. "Jack! Don't do that!" Jamie whispered, going back into his room and shutting the door.
Jack felt a little better after the nap he took, but was still slightly dizzy, and had begun to feel a small headache starting. He sat on Jaime's pillow, explaining exactly what happened to him. Jamie was laying down looking at the ceiling, looking towards him occasionally. "So do you know what happened to Pitch? Why did he leave?" Jamie asked once Jack was done, turning towards him. Jack had to scoot back on the pillow to avoid falling towards Jamie. "No, I didn't see, and I have no idea why he left. Maybe this was part of his plan." Jack said thoughtfully. "And I almost stepped on you!" Jamie said, remembering. "But you didn't, so it's all good. It takes more than that to hurt a spirit anyway." Jack said with a smile.
Jamie was relieved, but was too tired to think about it anymore. "Why don't you go to bed Kiddo. We can talk more in the morning." Jack said. Jamie nodded, careful to not move the pillow to much, then he turned over and fell asleep
Jamie woke up to feel something cold in his hands. Then he felt something pushing on them, like it was trying to get out. He suddenly remembered Jack and quickly sat up and opened his hands. Jack flew out the second the opening was big enough, Then he collapsed onto the blankets. "Jack! Are you ok? What happened?" Jamie said, looking carefully at the guardian of fun. Jack pushed himself up and glared halfheartedly at him. "I guess you decided to use me as a teddy bear last night. I've been trying to get out for hours, but didn't want to shoot you with ice. I was tempted though, it got really hot in there." He said, flopping back down dramatically.
Sophie ran into the room and jumped towards the bed. Jack saw and barely rolled out the way before she landed on him, but it still sent him flying. He steadied himself in the air and started laughing as Sophie jumped on Jamie. "Outside! Let's see Jack-Jack!" Jamie was laughing at his little sister's enthusiasm. "I don't think we have to outside to see Jack." Jamie said, then looked around for Jack, not realizing he was sitting on Jamie's shoulder. "Oh, i'm not so sure about that, I mean that Jack is pretty sneaky." Jack said to Jamie then laughed and flew to the window as Jamie started looking around.
Sorry it have taken this long to post anything! I've been really busy because school starts in a few days. I just got back from a vacation and saw this movie, and I really wanted to write a story for it. I looked around and didn't see many like this, so I wanted to create some! Please give any feedback and I will try to post weekly!
BB out!
