The light in the darkness, the warmth in the cold

Chapter ten : where it all came to an end .

Jack evaluated his surroundings, he was bound to some sort of a grey rock pillar. His wrists and ankles were bound with the same rock as if it were pushed within the rock itself.
The pillar he was bound to was in the middle of sunflowers field.
Around him was verity of sunflowers, some were fully grown, while others didn't bloom yet .
He tried to break free , but it was useless , turning his eyes he attempted to freeze the bounds and break them , as soon as it froze the restraints got warmer and warmer till the ice melted and he felt an intense burning sensation in the hands restrains .
He greeted his teeth against the pain.

" I told you he was going to try " said the autumn spirit as he appeared from jack's left among the flowers .
" I'm afraid that this is not going to work Frost " said the spring spirit.
" our boss made this pillar specially for you " she continued.
" ahh , you should be flattered " 
Said the autumn spirit.
" and who is that boss may be? "
Asked Jack arrogantly.
" you won't have that attitude when he's done with you that's for sure " said the spring spirit.
" we'll see " jack shrugged .
Jack felt the presence of a spirit, but it certainly wasn't the presence of these two , it was a bit stronger and fiery .
" hello Jack Frost, we meet at last" said the summer spirit coming from practically nowhere.
" and I was wondering why there is a scent of burnt trash , tuns out it's you " replied jack.

The summer spirit was a tall guy with yellow hair, orange eyes and red cape with a red sleeveless top and an orange short .
" did you like the gift at your place ? " he asked mockingly .
" yeah , it was .....(thinking of a witty comment ) ..breathtaking"  answered jack sarcastically.
The summer spirit laughed.
" they told me that you are funny, too bad that this is probably your last joke " he said.
" let's cut to the chase , shall we" stated jack darkly.
" what do you mean?" Asked the summer spirit.
" we don't exactly like each other, so what do you want?!" Said jack.
" me !! I want nothing, some high spirits do , they think that you are a source of chaos and corruption to the spirit system , they can't have you spreading your snow days and fancy snow making children love you and forget other spirits, they also can't have you being friends with pitch black , and I'm simply the one to do their dirty work " said the summer spirit.
" no hard feelings, although I have some " he added.
" wow , thanks for clarifying, it explains the fact that you are a total maniac " said jack.
" no hard feelings " he added mockingly.

" how dare you talk to our boss like that!! " said the autumn spirit .
" he'll make you pay !" Added the spring spirit.
" why don't you make me pay instead of Leaving all the work to your so called boss! " said jack.
" I'm going to show you!" Said the autumn spirit as he approached jack.
Jack gestured at him to come with his finger .
" enough!!"  said the summer spirit.
" sorry to end this lovely conversation jack , but you are truly getting on my nerves "
He stated.
Jack just huffed and observed them silently.
The summer spirit nodded to the others , they nodded back .
The autumn spirit was the first to make a move, he whispered a few words and raised his hands where four thrones came out from his fingers making contact with jack's body.
One throne in his left shoulder and another went deep into his right leg , while the other two went into his abdomen.
Jack held a yell pressings his lips as the autumn spirit pulled the thrones out .
The summer spirit acted next, he gestured his hands and huge model of the sun appeared on top of the pillar, the spring spirit casted a spell and a couple more sunflowers grew from every spot which jack's blood dropped.

Jack pulled at his bounds as the pillar got hotter and hotter he winced as the hot rock came in contact with his back.
The three spirits noticed jack reaction which caused them to share a wicked grin .
" it burns doesn't it "
said the spring spirit with a sickening smile.
Jack kept quiet.
The truth is it was difficult for jack to maintain his poker face as the sudden wave of heat was overlapping his dominance over his emotions.
" it's ironic isn't it? " said the summer spirit.
" what is it? " asked Jack.
" the fact that all the season spirits need each other except for you , the spring spirit needs the sun , I need these sunflowers and the autumn spirit need us both to help in the season, we all have a role to play for one another, too bad that you are not meant to play part in this cycle " cooed the summer spirit.
" you call it irony , I call it a blessing " said jack through greeted teeth.
The three spirits casted a spell and the whole pillar became warmer and warmer.
Jack turned his eyes , despite the pain he focused on covering his entire body with a layer of ice to cool him down , no matter how many times the ice melted he re applied it .
