Tsuki watched as the other mythical creatures went about their schedule. She sighed and put her head in her hand. She was a part of the moon, but somehow, after all these years, she wanted to be like them; be with them. She stood up and stretched. Her arms reached towards the ceiling and she circled around the crystal globe.
She never understood why she couldn't go down to the Earth. The Man on the Moon never told her why or why not. Tsuki stopped and stared at the globe. It now showed Jack Frost having a snowball fight with some kids. She paused and crouched down to watch. Of all the people that appeared on the globe, Jack Frost was the one she was most fascinated about. She wasn't sure why, but she just seemed to... know him.
"Hey, who hit me?"
A small boy looked around at the other kids. Nobody really noticed him, except Jack. Jack knew the pain all too well of not being able to be seen.
Jack decided to make the kid feel welcomed and sent some snow flakes his way. They crashed into his face and the small boy joined in with the other kids. Jack stepped back and watched. His grin matched his amazing cold blue eyes. He leaned on his staff and laughed.
"Your welcome for the snow day..." He said to no one in particular.
"Tommy, Andrea! Supper time!" Called a mother of two of the children.
"Aww!"
"Can we finish this war?"
"Maybe tomorrow, if you have a snow day."
Jack watched as the two kids waved goodbye to the others and headed into the warm house.
"A snow day, hm? I think I can make that happen." He smirked. "Wind, take me home." He was suddenly picked up by the wind and blown home.
Jack laid on his back in the snow. His eyes stared at the moon. He didn't know why he was there. The moon never said anything to him; from the day he woke up, until now. He sighed and sat up. He couldn't sleep. There was too much on his mind.
He stood up, grabbed his stick, and wandered out onto the pond. It felt relaxing under his feet. he shut his eyes and took a deep breath and then slid around the pond.
Tsuki laid on her stomach watching Jack skate on his pond.
"Tsuki, what are you doing?"
Tsuki kept watching the globe.
"Tsuki."
She tore her gaze away from the globe and rolled onto her back.
"Yes?"
"What are you doing?"
"Watching Jack Frost because I'm bored."
There was a sigh from The Man in the Moon.
"Why can't I go down there? Nobody will see me..."
"You are much different than them."
"I'm not that different." She pouted as she sat up. She crossed her legs in front of her and leaned on her hands.
"Tsuki, your special."
"Then let me go down there! At least let me talk to Tooth, Sandy, Santa, or Bunnymund. I want to be like them."
There was no response. She groaned and fell backwards. She shut her eyes and listened.
"Call all of the Guardian's!"
Tsuki snapped her eyes opened and looked up at the globe. It showed a picture of Santa with a panicked look.
"I wonder what's going on..."
Jack rolled over. The sun shown brightly onto his face. He woke up and held his hand up to block the sun.
"It's morning already?"
He sat up and grabbed his staff.
"Wind." He was picked up and flown to the town from the day before.
He landed softly onto a rooftop and brought the snow with him.
"No school today!"
He smiled as the kids ran outside and discussed the war terms again. He floated down and landed behind one of the kids. He picked up some snow and made a snowball. He aimed and threw it right at the kids back. The kid jerked forward and turned around.
Jack laughed and leaned on his staff again.
"Another fun day." He stood up again and started to play with the kids.
"Time for supper!"
The kids waved their goodbyes and some threw taunts to each other.
"It's sunset already?" Jack looked at the sunset and then looked down. Another day come and gone. He floated up to the telephone wires as a thin gold strand of sand floated past him.
"The sandman is on time." Jack smiled. He reached up and put his hand through one of the strands. It circled around him, making a dolphin.
He looked up into the sky. There was a huge 'cloud' of gold sand spinning about.
Sandman looked behind him and saw the signal. He huffed out a breath and made the sand into an airplane.
Jack watched as the Sandy disappeared. He wondered where he was going, but the thought soon left his head.
He turned and walked along the wires for some time before something passed by him quickly. He swung his staff and pointed it; moving his eyes around. Nothing.
Another shadow bumped into him. This time it moved towards the trees. He followed. It moved down the street and into an ally way before Jack lost it.
He stuck his staff out in front of him as he examined his surroundings.
"Hello mate."
Jack spun around and saw a figure leaning against the building.
"Been a long time. It was '68 I believe." The figure moved out from the shadows. Bunnymund pointed one of his boomerangs at Jack.
Jack pulled his staff close to him and leaned against it.
"Your not still mad about that are you?" He grinned.
"Yes. But this is about something else.."
Jack pulled away from his staff and gave a confused look.
"Fellas.."
Jack turned and saw a yeti grab him. He barely let out a 'hey' before he was shoved into a bag and sent through a portal.
"There he is! Jack Frost!" Santa exclaimed as Jack looked out the bag.
"Santa... wow.." He breathed out.
He climbed out of the bag and stood up.
"I hope the yeti's treated you well."
Jack put his staff on his shoulder and walked towards Santa.
"Yeah, I love being thrown into a sack and then tossed through a magic portal." Jack said sarcastically with a roll of his eyes.
"Oh, good. That was my idea."
Jack groaned.
"Why am I here?" Jack spun on his heel and walked back towards the railing and the sack. "Am I on the naughty list?"
"No, actually, you make the list, but that's not the point. The point is you were chosen to be a Guardian."
"A Guardian? No, no, no, I don't want to be a Guardian. That's your job." Jack said stubbornly.
"Look mate, we didn't choose you. The Man in the Moon did." Bunnymund pointed out.
Tsuki looked around the globe and down at the Guardians. Jack looked up at the moon and stared.
"That's not me! That's not why I'm here." Jack moved his gaze to the floor.
"Like we said, we didn't choose you, the Moon did."
"I had some input.."
Everyone looked up towards Tsuki. She felt small as she hid behind the globe.
"Who are you?" Tsuki looked at Santa.
He frightened her. They all did, now that she was in their presence.
"I-I'm...uh..." She stuttered.
"Come down here, please? We promise we won't bite." Tooth said warmly.
Tsuki looked at her and then took a deep breath before she floated down to them. Her silver hair landing softly behind her. She looked them over with her bright, purple eyes.
"What's your name sweetie?"
"Uh... my name is..." She whispered her name.
"What is it?"
"Ts-Tsuki..." Her eyes fell to the floor.
"That's a beautiful name!" Tooth said.
Tsuki looked up at her and gave a small smile. She caught a glimpse at Jack, who was looking at her like she was a puzzle.
"You don't happen to be The Man in the Moon's daughter, would you?"
Tsuki looked at Santa and nodded.
"What a-"
"Wonderful surprise." Tooth finished for Bunnymund.
