The Little Four: A Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons Story

Chapter 6

Jack

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. I had already saved the world from Pitch, and he nearly destroyed us.

Could this be worse?

"I guess you all will have to learn how to fight. Jack can teach you what he knows," Tooth said. I felt special knowing I would be a teacher.

Sandy displayed a bunch of symbols that went way to fast for me. I was still learning to translate. I think we all turned to North who could translate easily.

"Sandy thinks that you three," he pointed to Hiccup, Merida, and Punzie, "may have something to do with the seasons. After all, Jack here is winter."

"So how do we figure out who has which season?" Punzie asked.

"Merida can fly," Hiccup said suddenly. I turned to Merida who was looking down at the ground.

"I don't know if it's flying," Merida said. "I just, kinda, did it. I was wondering what I should do when the warm wind started blowing. I held up my arms and suddenly I was in the air."

"Do you think you could show us?" Bunny asked.

Merida shrugged. She closed her eyes. The room started to warm up. Too warm for me.

Merida rose into the air. She flew up to the ceiling then around the globe before landing.

"I think she's summer," North said.

"Really?" Merida asked, eyes lighting up.

"Did you see Jack when it warmed up in here? He looked like he was going to burst or something," Tooth giggled.

"Ha ha ha. Everybody laugh at Jack. I'll just go to my room," I said, turning on my heel. Then I tossed over my shoulder, "I sure hope I don't burst! Wouldn't want the walls stained with Jack Frost!"

I could here the others laughing as I lept off and flew the rest of the way to my room.

I sat on my bed, throwing frost all over. My room was a winter wonderland when I heard someone knock.

"Come in!" I called.

The door opened to a gaping audience of my new fellow guardians.

I stood up and grandly swooped my arm saying, "Welcome to Jack Frost's Winter Bedroom! Please pay for tickets over by the frozen desk."

They laughed as I sat back down on my bed. I absentmindedly started making snowflakes.

"Do you make every single snowflake?" Punzie asked.

"Nah, I just make these special ones. If it touches your face, it makes you realize what fun is. Cool, right?"

"More like cold," Merida replied, smiling a little at her joke.

"What? Is today Make Fun of Jack Day?" I joked.

They all laughed as I sent the snowflakes out to find someone and show them what fun is.

"What can I help you with?" I asked.

"Well, North said you could maybe give us a tour. Or we could start training..." Hiccup trailed off.

I jumped up.

"If you're gonna live here, you must see your rooms!" I said excitedly, leading them out the door.

I showed them the rooms they would be living in. It wasn't decorated, as we didn't know they were coming until an hour ago.

Punzie already knew where her bedroom was, but I had to show Hic and Mer (I'm so good at nicknames!) where she was.

After a quick tour of the gigantic place, I brought them to the basement. This served as our "training room" it really was just a big, empty, dirt-floored space with a few dummies in the corner.

"Since we know that Mer is summer, you two are either fall or spring," I said, pointing to Hic and Punzie.

"First, try influencing the ground. Spring grows flowers, I don't know what fall does."

Punzie and Hic knelt down. Their faces were tight with concentration. Nothing happened.

"Whoa, wait!" I said. "You're thinking too much. Mer flew by relaxing on a warm breeze. I fly by feeling the cool air. Just, relax."

Punzie looked down at the ground. She stood up and started to hum. It wasn't a loud humming. In fact, it was so quiet I could barely hear it.

Some green started to poke through the ground. Punzie started to wave her hands as though guiding the long vines that were forming.

She looked at me and smirked an evil smirk.

Suddenly, the vines grabbed me.

"Hey! Let g-!" I was cut off by the vine that wrapped around my mouth. I dropped my staff as the vines weaved in and out of each other. Then, Mer and Hic started laughing. I looked down.

Punzie had made the vines form a dress! I couldn't move to try and untangle myself.

"Oh! Make a tiara!" Mer gasped out. The vines shifted and I could feel something on my head. Punzie, Hic, and Mer were rolling on the ground laughing.

Because Punzie was distracted, the vine around my mouth loosened.

"Ok. Very funny. Let me go please," I said.

Footsteps noted that people were coming.

"What's going...? HAHAHAHA!" came from a certain bunny. Tooth and North were laughing. Even Sandy was shaking with silent laughter.

"Yeah yeah, Jack looks like a princess. Punzie, wanna let me go?" I said.

"Rapunzel did this? You, my friend, are now my favorite guardian," Bunny said.

"Punzie! Don't listen to the Easter Kangaroo!" I called, striking the exact nerve I wanted.

Bunny twitched. He turned and threw a bommerang. The vines were loose enough I could shift over. The bommerang cut through the vines and I was able to escape my torn dress.

"FREEDOM!" I yelled as I flew around the ceiling. The others laughed, except Bunny who still had his panties in a twist.

"Well Rapunzel, It seems you are spring. That means Hiccup is fall," Tooth said.

"What does fall do? All it seems to do is make leaves fall, hence the name," Hiccup said.

"Why don't we go somewhere that is in the fall season and see what you can do?" Mer suggested.

With that, North took out a snowglobe and sent us to a lovely fall forest.
