DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN RISE OF THE GUARDIANS OR ANY OF ITS CHARACTERS!

Hi! Well, this is my first fan fiction. This is purely fanmade and it shows what I think should be in the sequel of ROTG. I'm sooo excited! :D

Chapter 1: A New Guardian

Jack sat by his pond in his favorite tree, watching Jamie and his friends playing near it. This is about 3 years after Pitch has been defeated. Things, for once, were very peaceful for Jack and the guardians. Jack was just a bit sad, though. Winter would be ending soon and Spring would come. Jack hated Spring. Everything got so… warm. Not hot, but warm enough to make Jack hate the season that approached each and every year. The snow that Jack worked so hard to make would melt and the weather would be nicer. Well, not for Jack. Jack sighed at the thought of it. He looked down at Jamie who had just started a snowball fight. As much as Jack wanted to go down and join them, his body refused to move. He wanted to stay there, in that place.

Soon, as Jack was watching the battle that had started, he heard a deep voice behind him, "Hello Jack." Jack's eyes widened as he recognized the voice immediately. He did a full 180, standing up and grabbing his staff. His pale blue eyes met golden ones. "Pitch Black." Jack said, anger and surprise rising inside of him. Mostly surprise. "But… how… I thought you were…" Jack was at a loss for words. How was Pitch still alive? Pitch was suddenly in front of him, touching the side of his face, "Oh Jack, did you miss me?" He cackled, then disappeared into the shadows. This is bad. Was the only thing Jack could think. He hopped down from the tree, landing on his feet, then looked at the kids playing, making his way over to them, "You guys… go home for today. It's getting dark." Jack didn't want to scare them, so he didn't tell them about his sudden encounter. They all said "Okay!" simultaneously, then they ran home. Just as they were out of Jack's sight, he made the wind rush him up into the air and towards the North Pole. He had to warn the others.

As soon as he got there. Jack rushed to North's study, swinging the door open. "We… have… a… problem." Jacks said, his voice out of breath from running. North was startled by him suddenly coming in, "Problem? What are you talking about?" Jack, finally catching his breath, starting walking out just as fast as he barged in, "Gather the others first. This is a BIG problem." He flew down to the globe, gazing at each light. North, sighing in defeat, went to signal for the others to come. Bunny arrived first, as usual, appearing from the ground out of his rabbit hole. Next came Sandy, riding in on a hoverboard made out of golden sand. Finally, Tooth Fairy showed up with 3 of her little fairies, flying in through the window. They all seemed very impatient, probably because Bunny was painting his eggs, Sandy was giving good dreams, and Tooth was collecting teeth. North then turned to Jack, "Ok, all here. What is problem?" Jack inhaled and told them what had happened in one breath.

Everyone was staring at Jack, who was trying to catch his breath. Bunny spoke up first, "Oi mate, you stopped me in the middle of preparing my eggs to joke around?" Jack got angry that they didn't believe him, he snapped, "Would I joke about this Bunny?!" His sudden outburst made everyone flinch, they had never heard Jack yell like that before. At least not AT them. Bunny's ear went down, feeling guilty for making Jack think he didn't believe him. It was quiet for a few seconds before Tooth broke the silence, "So Pitch is back. What do we do?" She looked at North, expecting him to have an answer like he always does. Sandy pointed to a window where the moon was visible. They all looked at it, North spoke up, "Of course. Manny will have answer." The moonlight shone brighter and to the circle where Jack was chosen. Bunny, just like last time, got mad, "Again? How powerful is Pitch now that Manny thinks we need 6 guardians?" Jack glanced up at the moon then back at the circle, "Pretty powerful, I guess." They all gazed at the circle in the floor as it rose up, light shining from it, the figure began to show. It was obviously a girl. Her hair was down to the middle of her back, she was wearing a flower crown on her head, she was wearing a sleeveless dress that went down to just above her knees and the bottom half of it looked like a tutu that was deflated against her legs, the dress seemed to be sparkling, it had a floral pattern, her shoes were flat and the laces were tied up her leg, stopping right at the middle of her lower leg. They all knew who she was except for Jack who asked, "Who's she? I've never seen her." They were all still staring but Tooth answered him, "The spirit of Spring, Lily R. Clover."
