Every 330 years, a new mother nature is chosen but the original never goes away for she helps train them until she has to hibernate for another 330 years to regain her powers. But this time, she choses a 16 year old girl that is bent over backwards in protecting her 3 year old brother and has trouble trusting anyone, how can the guardians help? Pitch is a good guy in this story. Rated M because this contains child abuse, violence, drinking, blood, some swearing, and because I'm paranoid. No flagging please.

"Jack!" North said excitedly as said winter spirit came bursting through the windows of the workshop. "What are you doing here? I thought Mother Nature called you for an emergency Season's Meeting." Jack landed next to North, but he was tense, nervous, and not his usual self.
"Well, she did. And it turns out that she's going into hibernation to conserve her energy for the next 330 years and she put me and the other seasons in charge of finding and helping the new Mother Nature with her powers until she comes back." North gave Jack a fatherly pat on the back and a comforting smile.
"Do not worry Jack, we will all help search for the new Mother Nature." Jack's eyes lit up with a mixture of joy and gratitude.
"Really?!"
"Really."
"Thank you North! You have no idea on how much time that's going to save us! I'll inform the other seasons while you inform the other Guardians alright? When should I come back?" North chuckled at the young spirits' enthusiasm and replied
"Sunset should be good, that way it gives everyone else more than enough time to prepare, come here, and have a short meeting that way we can start looking right away."
"Gotcha!" Yelled Jack as he flew out the window to inform the other season spirits while North turned to one of his yetis
"Phil, make sure that nothing in the meeting room can break or burn. We are going to have all four season spirits here." The yeti groaned and went to do do as he was told... along with warning the other yetis about the teenaged season spirits visiting soon.
Brina's P.O.V
"Make sure to pack as much as you can before dad comes back alright?" I said looking down at my three year old brother. He had vibrant blue eyes with some of his blonde hair in spikes. Zeph was wearing a dark blue - almost black - hoodie, along with jeans and gray shoes.
"Okay," We both jumped at the sound of the front door slamming and drunk heavy footsteps down in the living room,
He's not suppose to be back for another hour!
"Brina, please don't do what I think you're going to do." He stared at me with wide, frightened eyes. I kneeled down and pulled him into a quick hug.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Now finish packing, I'll be right back." I whispered into his ear. He reluctantly pulled back and looked me in the eyes.
"Be careful."
"I will." I stood back to my full height of 5 feet, 2 inches. I grabbed the staff that was in the corner of Zeph's room and quickly - but quietly - stepped out of my brother's room and down the stairs. I saw my dad stumbling over everything with a beer can in his hands.
Great, he's drunker than usual. Better get Zeph out of the house sooner than I thought.
"There you are ya little *hiccup* bitch! Where's that no good *hiccup* brother of yours?" My dad slurred. When he gets drunk, he turns really abusive and I got the scars to prove it. But he wasn't always like this, before my mom passed away he was a nice guy and would never hurt either of us. But when mom passed away giving birth to Zeph and everything went down hill from there. I had to convince my school to let me be homeschooled so that I could keep an eye on my little brother. But summer was the worst. But last year I found an old tree house in the forest behind the house. I renovated it so that we could live in it and not have to worry about dad. "I asked you a *hiccup* question bitch!" I ducked just before his fist hit me and hit the wall behind me. He yelped and pulled his hand back, I took the chance to wack him upside the head with my staff, knocking him out... For now.
"Brina?" a small, concerned voice asked from behind.
"Hey Zeph, you ready to go?" He nodded as I picked him up, "I have to grab a few things real quick okay?" Zeph nodded again and I made my way to my room to grab my backpack - that I packed earlier in the day - a compass, and my necklace that had symbols for all four seasons - a snowflake for winter, a tulip for spring, a sun for summer, and a red leaf for fall. After making sure that Zeph was ready, I held onto him and exited the house through the back door.
"Don't you *hiccup* dare leave!" I looked behind me and saw that my dad's head was bleeding slightly and that he was carrying a gun.
Shit! "Zeph, keep your head down and hold on tight okay?"
"Kay." He tucked his head underneath my chin and wrapped his arms around my neck. I could feel him shivering with fear. I took one last glance at my dad, standing with the gun pointed at me, the best he could through his drunk haze, and bolted. Shots rang through the air and a couple whizzed passed my head. But I kept running.
"Ah!" I looked down to see Zeph holding his now bloody arm close to him, I wanted to turn around and give him a piece of his own medicine.
No, I have to get to the tree house and treat his wounds. I thought to myself and started running once more. More shots rang through the night and I felt a bullet enter the back of my left leg. "Ah!" The pain was almost unbearable as another bullet entered my right arm. But my determination to keep my brother safe pulled through and I disappeared with my brother into the tree line.
~Back to the Guardians~ Third person P.O.V =^w^=
"What is it this time North? I was just catching up on my napping." A complaining Bunny grumbled
"Sorry Bunny, but I'll tell you after the others get here." North and Bunny didn't have to wait long, a golden airplane came through the window, circled around the globe a few times and slowly disappeared to show Sandy gliding down towards them with Tooth not far behind.
'Now we're just missing the other two.' Sandy signed
"Glad I'm not the last one here. Where is Frost anyway?" Pitch said from behind Bunny, causing him to jump ten feet into the air.
"I hate it when you do that." Bunny said, glaring at Pitch who only grinned in return. All of a sudden, a sapling started growing in the middle of the room. The Guardians stared in awe as the sapling grew into a healthy maple tree, but the tree had four different sections of the branches. The top left section had budding leaves, the top right had leaves that were a healthy green color, the bottom left had leaves that were turning red, orange, even yellow, and the last section didn't have any leaves on it at all.
"Jack! Give me back my sword!" A masculine voice yelled out, followed by a familiar laugh. Two teenaged boys burst through the door followed by two teenaged girls and a tall, brown-haired woman in a green dress - that looked like it was made out of leaves. One of the girls had long black hair with orange streaks in her hair, her outfit was always changing so it was hard to know which one was her real outfit. The other girl had sun-kissed skin, soft grass-green eyes, and dirty blonde hair. She was wearing a plain white t-shirt and a frilly pink skirt that ended just below her knees. The boy chasing Jack around had fiery red eyes and the same color hair, he wore jeans and a tight red tank top.
"Jack, give Behar back his sword."
"Yes, Mother Nature." Jack said obediently, which surprised the Guardians, since he didn't really listen to anyone unless they were in an urgent situation.
"Everyone take your places on the tree."
"Already did Mother Nature." The girls replied, sitting in their designated areas while Jack and Behar took their places on the tree.
"We are all glad that you are here Mother Nature," North said, speaking for everyone, "Jack has told me that finding your replacement isn't going as planned."
"It really isn't, every time that I try to pinpoint their location - Jack don't even think about freezing Hallow's section - something blocks me out, almost as if they don't - Behar stopping pestering Hope - want to be found. So I'm glad that Jack told you, it will save us a lot of time." North wasn't fazed by the side conversation that she was making with the season spirits, but Bunny and Pitch lost track of what she was saying.
"I see. How about we split into groups of two to make the searching easier?"
"Sounds like a great idea." They assigned the groups and came out with North and Mother Nature, Bunny and the spring spirit, Hope, Tooth with Hallow, the fall spirit, Sandy and Pitch ended up being a group, and Jack had to go with Behar, which nether of them were happy about. "Stop complaining you two, I paired you guys up so because the closest I got to finding their location is in the middle of a forest during the summer, and Jack's going to help us in getting their attention." Jack and the summer spirit exchanged glances and signaled a silent truce until everything was back to normal.
~Now to Brina~ her P.O.V
After tripping over a tree root for the 100th time, the tree house came into view. I stopped at the base of the tree and groaned Why does there have to be a ladder?! I looked down at my brother who had fallen asleep about fifteen minutes ago, and woke him up even though I didn't want to. "Hey. Hey Zeph, we're here. But you're going to have to climb up yourself, okay?" He looked at me with tired eyes and then at the ladder leading up to the tree.
"Okay." I set him on the first step of the ladder and watched as he climbed into the tree house. When he made it inside, I started climbing up as well but flinched as my injured limbs screamed back at me in pain with step I took. When I finally reached the top, I was exhausted. "Brina?" I looked up to see my brother's worried eyes as my arm and leg bled.
"I'm fine. Now how about we get that bullet out of you, 'kay?" He just nodded and sat on the floor as I got the needed supplies to tend to our wounds. I helped him take off his hoodie showing his gray tank top and a bloodied arm. "It looks like it didn't go too far, so I'll be able to grab it with the tweezers without it hurting too much. So try to hold as still as you can." Zeph nodded and held as still as he could, he flinched slightly as I applied disinfectant around the wound. I gently grabbed the bullet and pulled as gently as I could and soon the bullet was out. I wiped off the blood that had accumulated around the wound and bandaged it. "There we go, all better."
"Thank you Brina, but what about your wounds?" said Zeph as he looked at his now bandaged arm
"Don't worry, I'll tend to them when you're sleeping." Zeph looked at me then nodded and headed off to bed
"'Kay, night Brina."
"Night Zeph." I didn't move from where I sat until I heard my brother's breathing even out and turned on a lantern to look at my leg since I couldn't reach the one behind my arm. It didn't go very deep ,but just enough where it would hurt. I clenched a piece of wood in between my teeth just in case I felt sudden pain. It didn't take long to remove the bullet and less time to disinfect it and wrap it. When I was finished bandaging my arm, I went to the window that was above my brother's head and stared at the moon. I was staring at the moon so long that I didn't notice it was snowing until snowflakes blew themselves right in front of my eyes. "What the? Snow? In the middle of summer?" I asked out loud
"Cool huh? I got permission from the summer spirit himself to let it snow so that we could get your attention." A voice answered above me, I looked up to see a white-haired, blue-eyed, teenaged boy with no shoes and a crazy looking staff sitting on one of the branches of the tree house.
"And you are...?" I asked/whispered, not wanting to wake up my brother who was stirring in his sleep.
"Jack Frost, spirit of winter and Guardian of Fun. Nice to meet you." He jumped off the branch, I was expecting him to fall to the ground but he was floating in middle air right in front of me. I couldn't find any words to speak with, so I just kept me mouth closed until I got over my shock.
"Brina Woods. And why did you need to get my attention?" Jack smirked and said
"Because you're going to be the new Mother Nature for 330 years until she's done hibernating." I just stood there with millions of questions going through my head, but the only thing that came out of my mouth was
"What?"
