History: Originally born Zack F. Rust, Jack is the bastard son to the Winter Kingdom's king. He was cast out of the castle as a young child and turned to the streets, where he was thought he would perish and die. He was taken in by a poor, elderly couple who could bear no children of their own. When he was seven, the couple passed away and Jack was once again left to die on the streets.

Luck was on his side, however, and he was able to join a guild of street urchins who offered him some meager protection and shelter. He stayed in the guild and to the shadows for a long time, becoming desensitized to the poverty, death, and horrors that surrounded him daily. Then, one day, he decided he was tired of being scared and powerless all the time and went to search for the city's best assassin in order to apprentice under him. He found him, only by chance, but was turned away. Curiosity bubbled inside his soon-to-be master, Onen Dien, and the assassin watched the boy closely for a while. When he saw the situation at the guild and how weak and cowardly Jack was, he gave Jack a challenge: If Jack really wanted to be Dien's apprentice, he would show his worth and kill the head of the guild within the week.

Confused and cowardly, afraid of commitment, Jack waited until the last moment, and it was only when the guild head, a boy of eighteen, had raped him that Jack finally lashed out and killed him, discovering his power over the cold (which most of the other boys had only a scant command over) in the process. Dien witnessed the whole thing and took on Jack as his apprentice.

Jack spent sixteen years training under Dien after crossing the borders into another isolated part of the country, learning everything he could from the master assassin. While crossing over the border, Jack attempted to register official papers in his name to allow him to travel. Unfortunately the processing center was quite busy and loud, so the official misheard him and be went from being Zack F. Rust to Jack Frust. He was eventually able to become better than Dien, having much of the natural talent and magic power required of being a good assassin. Over the years, Jack had developed feelings for a girl and planned to leave the assassin life in order to be with her. Dien refused to let this be and kills the girl, telling Jack that the perfect killer has no friends - only contracts. Jack turns on his master and kills him, inheriting everything his master left behind in the process.

Alone again, Jack turns to his work, taking comfort in the fact that he has the makings of a legend within him.

Power Struggle by Sunna

I will be here when you are gone so I have the right to a power gorge
And I will be good at making bad and I'll light the way for the fucking mad
I will defeat what I'm heading for and I will be here for evermore
And I am the way of your empty shell
I want more than I am 'cause I was made to fly
'Cause I was made to fly and you were made to die
But I was made to fly

I will survive 'cause I want more and I will create a bigger war
And I will rule over and give you hell and then you will do as I command
'Cause I will be here when you are gone
Yeah, I'll still be here when you are gone
I'll fill you with fear of a holy sun

I want all that I am 'cause I was made to fly
Yeah, I was made to fly and you were made to die
And I was made to fly

I will defeat you, I will defeat you, I will defeat you, I will defeat you
I will defeat you, I will defeat you, I will defeat you, I will defeat you

Manipulate, interrogate, compete all you like
And dominate with forceful hate 'cause you know I will defeat you
You were made to fight
Yeah, you were made to fight
And I was made to fly
But you were made to die
'Cause I was made to fly
Yeah, I was made to fly
And you were made to die but I was made to fly

I will defeat you

So begins...

Serenity of the Kingdom of Winter

"Frust! I call for you!" Shouted the queen who awaited in her throne room. She was currently having a small migraine, but she needed to disgust something with her most loyal servant before she lay down for a brief reset.

She sat up straighter as she awaited the assassin, twisting her ankles around one another and placing her hands in her lap.

The cold never bothers him, but the wind has always held a special place in his heart he never quite understood, and so he enjoys the crisp wind blowing small swirls of snow in through the window. Sitting alone in his safe-house, Jack focuses on his work, quickly, quietly, and carefully picking, slicing, dicing, and bottling the various herbs he needs for his missions. A little voice in the back of his head, one he would rather forget despite the valuable lesson it holds, repeats "do not taste death" like a mantra. In everything he does, he hears things like this, as if he has never gotten out of his master's shadow and is still a boy who needs guidance.

He scoffs, almost laughs, at the thought. That time passed long ago, and he's glad of it. He never wants to go back to the way he was before, cowardly, confused. He was pathetic, and now, now he is something grand, a man worthy of a legend. He leaves his workspace, taking off his gloves and then washing his hands with alcohol and water into a basin used only for this purpose. "Never taste death," he whispers under his breath with a smirk upon his face, his smirk of cynicism and venom he picked up on the streets.

His hands free of the death he wants only to bring to others and never meet himself, he walks out of the safe-house, grabbing his coat along the way and wrapping the thick furs around him to shield him from the cold. He leans against the wall, head back and eyes closed, his breathing deep and even as he thinks on the state of the world.

The kingdoms are on the edge of war; any drunken fool should be able to see that. But he feels like there is more to it than the oil on the surface of troubled waters. He doesn't particularly care who wins the war: an assassin has many skills, and one queen can use them just as well as the next. The Winter Queen seems to think she has won his loyalty, but that is something no one has ever won, not since...

He forces himself to forget. He can't bare the thought of the past, not yet. All there is now is his work: the next contract, the next deader, the next kill, the next dead body.
