Chapter 1

Hollow Eve

Light

All I could see at first was this blinding light.

I felt this terrible heat through my body, and I was terrified.

Then the light became the tongue of flames. These flames then framed the moon.

The moon.

The blue seemed brighter due to the frame of red that surrounded it. It comforted me. I looked towards the moon, no longer terrified.

I floated towards the moon, a smile crossing my face. It was short-lived though, for then my mind was clouded with memories.

I stood before a mirror, looking at my costume.

I was 17, with soft brownish-red hair and brown eyes. My face was angular, but adorned with a soft smile. I was tall for my age, all legs. My costume was for the night before me: Halloween. I had a simple black dress on, a witch hat on my head and a makeshift wand in my hand.

I walked from my house, in search of my little brother. Outside, I was greeted by my whole village, all holding torches and pitchforks. My eyes widened as they grabbed for me.

"Why do you do this?" I questioned. "What is your purpose?"

Then I heard what the crowd was yelling:

"Witch!" "Burn her alive!" "She deserves to burn!"

They dragged me towards town square, binding my hands and feet to a wooden pole.

"I am not a witch!" I screamed to them. "This is a costume! It is Halloween! Don't you understand?"

The village mayor came forward then, holding his hand behind him. "Hailey Windrow, today you are accused of witchcraft."

"I have done nothing of the sort!"

"We have proof from different members of the audience before you and from me." He turned towards the crowd. "Today, this witch shall burn!"

The crowd began to cheer as he took up a torch and set the dry wood and hay below my feet on fire. They caught instantly, sending fiery tongues up my legs, catching my dress too. I remember screaming and writhing in pain, trying to escape my bonds. Smoke entered my lungs quickly as I gasped for air. The fire spread, and the smoke increased. Black danced in my vision. Soon I passed out, dying from smoke inhalation.

The moon shone though, covering me in blue light. My hair turned a fiery red, my skin turning pale. I opened my eyes, seeing they turned a deep purple.

I gasped, trying to understand what I saw.

I was burned alive? Tried for witchcraft?

I was set down on the ground, my feet now bare and my dress seared off in the areas touched by flames. I looked around, seeing children running from house to house, unaware of what just happened.

I walked towards a group of children.

"Hey, do you think you ca-"

As I reached out a hand, they ran through me, passing me as if I were only air. I stifled a gasp and the pass though me.

They don't see me? I thought, holding my stomach. I walked away from my village, slowly beginning to run. Wings sprouted from my back as I gained speed. I looked behind me in surprise. They were black raven wings, slick with a wax. I flew through the skies, only then allowing myself to cry.

Jack Frost was standing atop the globe in North's workshop.

After the whole Pitch fiasco, he decided to stay with North since they were practically family. He helped the yetis with the building of toys and helped keep up the spirits in the workshop. He was able to see the gang all the time since North held the yearly Guardian Party.

Unfortunately, Tooth tried to start something with him. Their friendship took a major blow, but it came back slowly. Even though Tooth still felt something for him, she knew he never would approve.

Jack shook his head, continuing to walk around the globe. He stopped when he came across the area that used to flash with Jamie's light. It had been 20 years. Jamie and long since believed in him, but Jack understood. Jamie grew up and got a family, telling his kids about the Guardians he still remembered, but could no longer see.

Jack smiled as he walked towards the two new dots that marked Jamie's two children. He remembered seeing them playing in the snow, throwing snowballs at their father.

The moon suddenly flared, catching Jack's attention. His eyes widened. He turned, flying towards North's workshop.

"North! Manny's got something to say!" he yelled, grabbing the Russian's attention.

"What? Are you sure, Jack?" North asked, following Jack back to the globe. They stared at Manny, still shining brightly.

Jack turned towards North. "Call the Guardians?" he asked.

North nodded, turning a dial to start the Northern Lights.

Moments later, they were gathered. Tooth fluttered around, telling her fairies where to go for teeth. Sandy was floating by North, asking about things with the symbols above his head. Bunny sat by the fire, trying to warm his frozen feet.

"This better be good, mate. I got a warren to run!" Bunny said, rubbing his paws together.

"It is. Man in Moon feels something big is going to happen," North replied.

Tooth stopped, asking, "What do you mean?"

Jack came down from his perch. "It may be another Pitch problem or another problem completely." He walked forward, looking towards MiM. "What's your plan, big guy?" he yelled to Manny.

Light beams moved, causing a crystal to come out of the floor. Everyone's eyes widened with shock.

"Another Guardian?" Bunny questioned. "I barely survived through the last one!" He motioned towards Jack.

"Hush, Bunny! He's one of us now, remember?" Tooth said, turning towards the crystal once more. "I wonder who it's going to be."

A small clover appeared above Sandy.

"Why do you always think it's going to be the Leprechaun?" Jack questioned. Sandy shrugged his shoulders.

Bunny muttered, "Please not the groundhog, please not the groundhog."

Jack muttered back, "Please be the groundhog, please be the groundhog."

An image formed above the crystal, showing a girl. Her hair went to mid-back and she was tall. She looked to be about 17. She wore a one shouldered long sleeve with a halter camisole underneath. She wore a skirt that went to mid-thigh. She was barefoot too. Her choppy bangs covered most of her eyes, but from what could be seen, they were full of laughter and slightly almond shaped. Her lips were turned up in a smirk. On her head she also wore a beanie.

Everyone wore confused expressions.

"Who is this?" North questioned. All but Jack shrugged.

Jack spoke up. "She looks familiar." He crept closer, looking at her face more. Suddenly he remembered. "Hollow Eve!"

"Who?" everyone questioned.

He turned towards them. "Her name is Hollow Eve. She works during Halloween. I see her every now and then since she works close to the colder times. She's a pretty cool chick."

North nodded, handing him a sack and a globe. "Good," he said. "Then you can go and get her."

I walked around, seeing the aftermath of the years Halloween. The random candy wrapper or empty caramel apple stick on the ground, glow sticks laying there, their owners long since forgetting about them, the occasional smashed pumpkin on a doorstep. I laughed as I passed a house that had been TP'd.

"I'm going to say that this year was pretty successful! What do you think, Hollow?" I said to myself.

I answered back. "I agree wholeheartedly!"

"Do you usually talk to yourself like this?"

I turned towards the voice, smiling. "After a successful Halloween, yes I do! What about you, Frost? Don't you congratulate yourself for every snow day?"

He stepped out of a shadow, one hand in his pocket, the other on his staff.

I smiled to myself. Yep, he is still as cute as ever.

"So what do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Frost?" I asked, mocking a low bow to hide my smile.

He laughed aloud, his shoulders shaking. "Well, I was told to shove you in a sack and push you through a magic portal that would bring us to the North Pole." At this I raised an eyebrow. He continued to speak. "I had to go through that, so I won't make you suffer."

"Oh thank you good sir!" I fell to my knees. "I thought I was going to die!"

"Has anyone ever told you that you are a major drama queen?" he asked, smiling.

My smile wavered. "They would if they could see me."

He winced. "Sorry," he said.

I shrugged my shoulders. "So why am I needed at the Pole?"

"I will explain when we get there." He turned to fly off, but stopped turning towards me. "You can fly, right?"

I smirked, snapping my fingers. The raven wing appeared behind me, carrying me towards the clouds.

I turned towards him as he flew into the sky.

"Wanna race?"

We arrived through on open window, and everyone was focused away from the window. I heard them muttering about when Jack would get back. I smirked and turned towards Jack, a wild gleaming showing in my eyes. He raised an eyebrow in question. I held up a hand, saying to wait. I crept up behind them, and then cleared my throat. As they turned towards me, I changed into a vampire. Not a Twilight sparkly vampire. I'm talking like old horror movie vampire.

When they saw me, I let out a screechy hiss, baring my fangs. They all jumped into a fighting stance as I laughed. I changed back, still laughing.

"You guys need to know a real vampire from a fake!" I said, wiping tears from my eyes. "I mean how could a real vampire be standing in a pool of light?" As I said this, I gestured behind me to the open window. I looked back to see Jack on the floor, laughing hysterically.

"Oh man! You guys should have seen your faces!" he said, trying to stand.

I turned, seeing the tall rabbit before me. Easter Bunny.

"You are going to regret that, mate," he hissed... if rabbits could hiss.

"Am I?" I asked, rocking back and forth on my heels. "Am I supposed to scared of you, Mr. Kangaroo?"

His face turned crimson. "I'm a rabbit, mate."

I made a surprised face. "Oh I am so deeply sorry, your majesty! I never knew!" I mock bowed, laughing slightly. Suddenly, a paw gripped the fabric of my shirt, pulling my forward.

"I am not going to deal with another one of you," he said darkly. I smile and disappeared, leaving my shirt in his paw. His eyes widened, dropping the shirt.

"You know, being the spirit of Halloween does have its perks," I said from my spot by a control panel. They turned towards me, seeing where I had moved. I snapped my fingers. The camisole I wore changed to a lime green color as a black long sleeve was placed on me. It was cut so it ended right below my chest and on the shoulders. "Halloween equal costumes, meaning I have an endless wardrobe."

I smiled again as the rabbits face turned crimson again. Suddenly, a great big man came forward.

He began to speak. "Well, now that that is over, I shall introduce you to us, and explain why you are here." I nodded, showing I understood.

"I would hope you would know me?" the man asked. My face was blank as I shook my head.

"Sorry," I said. "I don't go out much, so I don't meet very many people."

He nodded. "I am Santa Claus, but here, I am known as North." He motioned to the rabbit. "This is Bunny."

"Not trying to be rude," I started, "but I kinda guessed that one."

North let out a chuckle. Then he cupped his hands over his mouth, yelling, "TOOTH! Get down here and meet someone!" From behind the globe, a green figure darted around. She came closer, a smile on her face.

"Hi!" she said cheerfully. "It is so nice to meet you! I'm the Tooth Fairy." I smiled looking at her. She was cheerful and I didn't really like people like that. Might as well give it a shot, I thought to myself.

North motioned me forward. He brought me to a small golden man who seemed to be asleep. "This is Sandy," North said, pointing to him. "Sandy... Sandy... Wake up!" The man shuttered awake, waving to me. I waved back. Then he began to sign.

Hello! It is nice to meet you! he signed, using pictures above his head. I signed back using my hands.

It is nice to meet you too. I hope I fit in here... where ever I am.

He gave a small chuckle, signing, You should easily enough.

I smiled, looking back at North who was dumbfounded.

"What?" I asked. He just shook his head.

"And finally, I would assume you know Jack Frost?"

I smiled, crossing over to Jack. "Special Handshake Time?" I asked holding out my hand. He smiled, holding out his hand. Our hands became a blur as we did the handshake. Once we were done, we laughed hugging each other quickly.

I turned back towards North, asking, "Did that answer your question?" I walked around, not bothering for an answer.

"I guess I should tell you all who I am," I started. "The name is Hollow Eve, spirit of Halloween. My name is a modified version of the old name All Hollow's Eve." I turned towards them, asking, "So why am I here?"

They all gathered before me, leaving me standing by the fireplace.

North spoke up. "Man in Moon has chosen for you to be Guardian!"

I stood in shock. "What?" I whispered, taken aback. "Why me?"

Tooth then came forward. "Manny has seen that you have good intentions in your heart, the kind that are perfect for a Guardian."

"I..." I shook my head backing away. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I'm the right person."

North laughed. "Of course you are! That is why Manny chose you! Music!"

I cringed when trumpets began to blare. Elves came out of the woodwork, playing music and running around. One came forward, giving me shoes to wear. The music got louder as I backed up more. I held my ears trying to block out the noise. I started to get angry, when I finally snapped.

I transformed into a big creature made up of a straw body, arms, and legs that had a pumpkin for a head. The pumpkin was ablaze, giving it a wicked glow. I shot flaming leaves from my hand, blowing away the elves and yetis.

"STOP!" I screamed in a deep, raspy voice that was not my own. The music stopped as they all looked towards me with surprise. I changed back to my normal self, the fire still present in my eyes. Before they could say anything, I flew away, the raven wings sprouting from my back.

I didn't look back.

Alright so that was the first chapter!

What did you guys think?

I am open to criticism and reviews!

I apologize for any mistakes made in the chapter.

I also apologize at the fact that I won't be on for a while since I will be away at band camp.

Sorry!

Side note, I am working on what Hollow looks like, meaning I am drawing her. I will probably put it as the document picture when it is finished.

R&R!
