PROLOGUE

A boy who spreads winter, causing snowball fights.. with snow white hair and hints silvery shades in it, piercing blue eyes, deathly pale skin, ragged brown leather deer skin pants that were tied off mid calf to hold them together, a blue hooded shirt adorned with frost at the sleeves, neck and pocket, which he wore over an old white cotton shirt and ragged deer skin vest, he carried a Sheppard's staff and wore no shoes as he rode the wind to spread snow. This is Jack Frost, the Spirit of Winter, the Guardian of Fun and big brother to Emma Overland who has long since died.

But before we get into Jack Frost, we need to know who he was.

This boy was different in appearance but not personality, his hair and eyes were both a rich chocolate brown, where his skin was a creamy peach color, he wore a white cotton shirt, leather deer skin pants and vest, he carried a Sheppard's staff and wore no shoes and he loved winter but not as much as his sister. This is Jackson Overland.

Jackson lived in the colonial settlement of Burgess, Pennsylvania, with his mother Mary, his father Jackson and his little sister Emma. His family had been poor but they managed and they were healthy and happy which was all that matter, his father worked as a Sheppard for the village and would also hunt in which Jack would take over the Sheppard duties when he was old enough that is. Jack was always lanky and skinny not just because he gave his portions to his mother and sister when times were hard in winter but it was just really how he grew, never gaining muscle or anything but he held his own, jack though, however, would prank everyone and everything whether they deserved it or not, he did anything to anyone to get them to smile and be happy even if he annoyed them but no one loved his antics more then emma, most of the time.

Jackson's best friend, James, helped him in his schemes as well.

Jackson's girlfriend also loved his antics but still not like emma did.

Jack did everything with and for his sister no matter how old they got.

One Christmas morning, the two Overland siblings opened their shared present from santa, a gift of ice skates.

Jack had promised his sister to take her ice skating today and after breakfast he kept that promise, with a sense of dread in his stomach he let his sister drag him out to the lake a little ways from their home in the woods, with a call of "be careful!" from his mother and a response of "we will!" He glanced at his mom, to his sister ever impatiently dragging him then back to his mother and now father who stood next to her as if he felt he needed to memorize their faces.

Jackson and emma skated happily, enjoying their wonderful day, until a loud crack hit their ears..

A web of cracks laid under emmas feet, trying to hide his own fears he tried to figure out how to help his sister, he couldn't get closer or the ice would break.. he glanced around, catching sight of his staff, he got an idea.

"Were gonna have a little fun instead." He told his sister who instantly denied it and proclaimed he always played tricks, but he wasnt this time with a none denying tone. "You have to believe in me." He told his sister who in turn took a breath and stared at her brother who asked to play a game, Hopscotch.

Like they play everyday.

Jackson took his turn taking three steps, faking a stumble on the first one to get his sister to laugh as he got to thicker ice and picked up his staff in his hand,

"Alright, now its your turn."

He told Emma who hesitantly took a step as her brother counted gasping when each step fractured the ice more, on the third step she was in reach, Jackson leaned forward hooking the hooked end of his staff around his sister's waist before using all his height, strength and weight to throw her over behind him onto the thicker ice.

The siblings looked up from the ice and the action of Jack saving his sister, smiling to each other they stood up and went to meet each other as jack gave a relieved laugh. Unknown to either as Jack took his first step towards his sister, he had switched spots with her and his added weight broke the ice...

Plunging Jackson into the icy waters of the lake.. "Jack!"

Was the last thing he heard as he frantically tried to find his way back to the hole in the ice.. in the dead of Winter the water was below freezing, Jack's movements slowed until they stopped, the beat of his heart loud in his ears as the blurred image of his sister through the ice calling for him, Jackson closed his eyes with a last thought. 'Im sorry Emma.'

Saving his sister from the cracking ice..

Jackson Overland drowned.

Now the man in the moon saw this act and all through Jack's life, which is why, man in moon has deemed Jackson worthy of a new start.

man in moon gave Jackson the power of winter and pulled him from the lake,

"You are Jack Frost."

The moon told Jack.

With no idea what happened or what he was, why he was there or what he was meant to do, who he was or that he had died and left his family. Jack Frost.. did what Jack Frost did best...

He gave winter to the world.
