Chapter 7
Lena's Task and Present
LENA'S POV.
Within minutes, we reached the Pole. I wonder what all this was about. We walked to North's office, but then Jack grabbed my hand and said,
"Wait."
And I guess I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel a tingly feeling in my stomach, sort of like when I help my sister try out some potions that she makes, usually for magic tests or for when we're bored. Only this time it was much better.
"Look Lena, I just want you to know that I'll always be there for you. I thought I should tell you. The whole, 'haven't seen you in three-hundred-eighteen years' thing was kinda chewing me out, so…"
I smiled, then hugged him.
"Don't worry Jack, I forgive you. We'll always be best friends forever. Literally. We're immortal Jack."
We both laughed and kept going to North's office. The others were already there.
"What going on, has Pitch turned up again?" I asked.
"No, but we have reason to believe he is after you Lena."
"What, why!" asked Jack, gripping his staff.
"Well Lena, you are a music fairy, and was given a great power by Manny. You also have the power of ice and snow, as well as the ice scepter." North explained.
"Okay, but what does that have to do with me?"
"Lena, if Pitch were able to get control of you and your powers, both of them, he could be, for lack of a better word, and basically speaking, unstoppable."
This isn't good.
"Well we wont let that happen, right?" asked Jack.
"Got that right." said Bunny.
"But still, you are in danger as well Jack, if he got to you as well it could be the same thing. And we do not want to think about what would happen if he got both of you." said Tooth.
"Well, that wont happen, there is no way I'd ever give in to the nightmares, the same with Jack too."
"Well then we have nothing to worry about." Jack said.
"Well there is one other thing still." said North.
"What is it?" Jack and I asked at the same time.
"Well, you both know that there are other guardians besides us, some that are on a higher magic plane, but believed in, just like us right?" asked North.
"Yeah, like Mother Nature, Cupid, Spring, Summer, Fall, Halloween, Trust, Hope, the list goes on and on." I said.
"And you know that even the strongest, can sometimes be brought down, and now with Pitch back-" I cut Tooth off.
"Please tell me that they haven't fallen to Pitch and he hasn't taken their powers and centers." I said, fearing the worst.
"No, that has not happened." Bunny said.
"Oh thank goodness."
"But it has crossed each of their minds." Sandy said above his head.
"So what have they done?" asked Jack.
"They decided that if Pitch should invade and try to take their Centers, that they will not have them completely. So they all had a meeting of the guardians. We were there as well as your mother Lena." North said.
"Really?"
"Yes, and it was your mothers idea for the decision we came across."
"What was it?"
"You will be the one to hold on to all our centers."
"W-w-what?"
"It was decided that we would each take our centers and store them in this."
He then held up a blue mystical, crystal sphere about twice the size of a regular large marble, that had a spiral holder on it that was held by a chain. It had the magic of all the guardians including ours even, emitting from it.
"But, the other guardians need their powers, you guys need your powers, I can't!"
"You just have our main centers, we all still have a pretty good amount of our powers left in each of us. You were chosen Lena. You must carry and protect this, this heart, that has each of us inside. Lena it is your job to protect each of our beings and help us keep the children safe and believing, like your sister Sonia, and Jamie and their friends who are some of our strongest believers. Will you do this as a guardian and a friend?"
I thought about it.
"Alright I will, but one question. Since I have this, does this mean I can use their powers as well?"
"Yes."
"Cool! I'll guard it with my life."
"Oh and one more thing. Once it is put on, only you can take it off, or someone you give permission too. No one or thing from the darkness can even touch it without being harmed." North explained.
"Alright that's good to know."
"Now we must get to the other guardians." North said.
"What, why?"
"Because they all want to meet you, after all you are carrying their sacred treasures with you. But they actually want to meet you more. Your mother told us many good thing about you, as well as Manny. So are you ready?" he asked.
I had only one answer.
"Yeah, I'm ready for anything."
And then we were off. I really hope things go well, there are a few guardians I'm sure won't be all that excited to see me.
OKAY, HOPE YOU GUYS LIKED, SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING, I AM STILL PACKING FOR THE MOVE. I AM REALLY TRYING, SO PLEASE DON'T KILL ME. PLEASE REVIEW, BUT NO FLAMES. PEACE OUT. AND IF THERE ARE ANY GUARDIANS YOU WANT THEM TO MEET OR MAGIC BEINGS, THEN JUST LEAVE REVIEWS OR PM ME.
