It was always so warm inside the workshop. I don't know why though. It might have been cold in there, but I couldn't really tell. I guess the yetis need a cold environment, so I assume it would have been cold where they worked.

"What took you so long?" Bunny asked, leaning against one of the poles holding up the floor above us.

"Uh..."

"The wind went crazy and we ended up having to stay in Canada for a while," Jack explained for me. I didn't really know what I was supposed to say and I don't think Jack would be very happy with me bringing up Thomas, so I left him out of my head. I don't believe Jack liked Thomas. I didn't even know the guy, but I guess he was just jealous. I've never really talked to any guys before because I've never had any to talk to. Jack was the only boy my age (or looked my age) that I've talked to. So talking to Thomas was a little strange because of that.

"Well... you're bags are in your room ready to be unpacked. You can go and do that now if you wish," North said. They all just stared at me. Again with the mysteriousness! Why the heck do they keep hiding things from me?! I couldn't help but groan as I walked off. They were trying to get rid of me. I had only just got there! And now I had to go to my room. Perfect.

I could hardly remember where my room was! So many things had happened since I had last gone to my room. To think, this time yesterday I was unconscious in a cage. Wow! Time was going really slow! Since then, I woke up, went back to Burgess, almost died, helped save Jack, talked to my dad about everything that was going on, packed my bags, ice skated, flown, crash landed in Canada, met some random guy and flew again to get back here! Oh my goodness! What an action packed 24 hour period of time this has been! As long as there's no more near death experiences, I hope each day I spend with the Guardians is that eventful!

When I got to my room, I found my suitcase sitting neatly in the centre of my bed. I couldn't help but notice the frosted vase and white rose still sitting on my bedside table, perfectly beautiful. So I started to unpack my things. This room didn't have a walk in closet like I was used to, but I still loved the vintage wooden cabinet for hanging clothes and the chest of drawers for those things. It took about half an hour to put all of my clothes away and such. The only reason it took that long is because I liked to have my clothes neatly folded as I packed them away and Ciara most definitely had not done that. She had thrown everything in that she thought I would need.

I eventually walked out and went to the bathroom, to unpack my things there. I noticed that there were no toothbrushes or hygiene equipment in here... why was that? Did North not brush his teeth or wash his hair? Ew! Then again, he's hundreds of years old, so he probably doesn't need to. But I most certainly did! I'm human! I still do everything humans do, like sweat and such, so I definitely need to do all of the basic hygienic things.

Jack's POV

As they had before, the moment Belle left, the Guardians shot me this look I couldn't quite read. Great. Another talk.
