As we turn toward the face of the hooded figures.

Two hooded figures with familiar-looking staffs rests atop a Post Office box on the opposite end of the street. The man touches the staff to the ground, sending a streak of frost across the street. A Russian boy approaches a water fountain, turns the handle, and moves in for a sip. But as he does, the water freezes magically, and the boy's tongue is stuck to the frozen water. His friends can't help but laugh.

The Russian boy gets his tongue stuck to the ice. "Aahhhhh...!"

A mailman walks across the street and a patch of ice magically appears under his feet. He scrambles, and boom! - lands on his butt. Just behind the man, we see the trail of frost climb up the side of a building. We stay on the frost as it moves up along a rain pipe, and through the windows we see...

A boy trying to feed his goldfish, but a layer of ice suddenly forms along the water's surface and prevents the fish from reaching its food. We move along the side of the building... A writer in his study sits next to stacks of papers. The window suddenly swings open and a gust of wind sends the pages flying out the window. We move along the building, across clotheslines and power lines as they freeze. We continue to move up and finally discover the culprits. Jack Frost and (Y/n) Frost make their way atop a cathedral spire and take in the view; the full moon bathes the city in the moonlight.

"Ah, now that, that was fun." Jack started.

"Hey, wind..." Jack chuckles as (Y/n) calls the wind.

The trees begin to sway and leaves fly into the air. Jack and (Y/n) grab hold of the spire, smiling as the wind blows past.

"Take us home!" Jack finished.

The two let go and the wind carries them into the air and through the clouds. Night turns to day as Jack and (Y/n) fly from one horizon to the other.

"Woooooohoooooooooo!"

--------------

The two winter spirits fall through the clouds, smiling, toward the town of Burgess.

"SNOW DAY!!!" Jack and (Y/n) yell.

The two continue on down and zoom through the streets. Pedestrians clench their jackets and reach for their hats as gusts of wind, snow, and streaks of frost are left in Jack and (Y/n)'s wake.

-------------

Jack and (y/n) fly in, and with the wind behind them skates across an all too familiar pond. As the wind zips across the pond it knocks a book out of the hands of a little boy walking alone, this is Jamie.

"Whoa, whoa." Jamie goes to pick up the book and we get a glimpse of the cover - "THEY'RE OUT THERE! - MYSTERIES, MYTHICAL CREATURES, AND THE UNEXPLAINED PHENOMENA." Jack flies into the frame and lands beside Jamie.

"Huh, that looks interesting. Good book?"

Suddenly twins Claude and Caleb, come barreling past them, rough-housing and laughing as they slam each other into drifts (all the boys are 8).

"Alright! Yeah! Waahoo! Snow day!!!" The twins call out.

Jack calls after the boys... "You're welcome!"

Jamie goes running after them. "Hey guys, wait up! Are you guys coming to the egg hunt Sunday?"

"Yeah, free candy!" Claude says.

"I hope we can find the eggs with all this snow"! Caleb stuffs a handful of snow down his brother's Jacket
