When Fate Plots and Portals Glitches

Unexpected Outcomes

"What the hell, what the actual hell."

Jack turned to Danny "you just saw that, right?!"

Danny didn't say anything, but now he had an idea on what those kids felt like when he first met Jack.

"Danny, put on your shoes. I wanna try something." Jack said.

Danny gave Jack a curious glance and started putting on his red sneakers "... alright, where are we going?"

Jack had a bit of a crazed look to him "Everywhere."

Danny raised both brows as Jack grabbed his hand and used the other to grab his staff. "Jack, I haven't even tied my shoelaces yet! Jack!"

Jack wasn't listening as he ran and practically dragged Danny out the door.

. . . 

"Hey, Jamie, quick question. Is your mom home?"

Jamie gave Danny a confused look "Well, no. Not yet. But she should be in a few minutes. Why?'

Danny glanced at Jack, then back at Jamie "Just, trying something out."

Jamie open the door and invited them in "... Ok. By the way Danny, I think I figured out who you were! And why you came here!"

Danny withheld an amused look "Oh?"

Jamie suddenly had on a professional expression. "Me and my co-theorists has theorized that you're from what I like to call planet X. You were a super hero but then had to have your memories cleared to keep your identity. And you're here for a super-secret-mission."

Suddenly the serious look evaporated and Jamie gave a toothy smile "It all makes sense! Why you got these muscles," Jamie flexed his arms as an example "got mad reflexes and can see Jack! Because you're not from here! You don't need to follow our rules! Kinda like why superman flies! He doesn't follow Earth's rules of gravity!"

Danny and Jack gave each other a blank look. Danny had to admit, some of the stuff, as wild as it was, made some sense. Danny, however, very much doubted it. "As nice as that sounds, I don't think that I was ever a super hero, Jamie."

Jamie frowned then shrugged "suit yourself." He then turned to Jack "Where were you?! I hadn't seen you, since like, forever!"

Before Jack could answer everyone turned when they heard the door open "Hey Jamie, is Sophie still asleep? Anyways, I'm back from work-" Jossey then paused and looked at all of the occupants in the room "Oh, hello Danny. It's been awhile, hasn't it?" She stared right at Jack "who's your new friend?"

Danny had to literally shake himself out of it "He- um. This is Jack."

Jamie was less subtle. His eyeballs were practically bulging out of there sockets. "You can see Jack?!"

Jossey nodded absentmindedly, used to Jamie's antics. Then she stopped. She then took a closer look at Jack "Wait... are you Jack Frost? Jamie talks about you all the time. I thought that you were a imagery friend-"

"MOM." Jamie crossed his arms, displeased.

Danny turned suspicious as Jack once again had his mischievous smirk. This could only go one out of two ways-

"What made you think that I was imaginary?" Jack said with a sly and smug smile.

Suddenly Danny knew exactly how this was going to go down. But as he saw Jamie's hopeful face, Danny wasn't so sure if he wanted to stop it.

Jossey make a mental list. "Well, for one. It was the name. Your name isn't really Jack Frost, is it?"

Jack gave a nod "No, it is."
