Chosen
Somewhere nestled deep within the Arctic Circle is a large fortress that is guarded by large hairy yetis. Inside is Santa's workshop though those who know him call him North.
This is the place that the northern lights had originated from, it was a signal used to call together the most famous mythical creatures of all time and finally all but one had gathered.
North, Tooth the tooth fairy and Bunnymund the Easter Bunny were gathered in a large room with a gigantic globe suspended in the centre, it had bright yellow lights dotted all over it.
"This better be good, North" Bunny grumbled annoyed that only a few days before Easter he had been dragged out here, into the cold for a surprise meeting.
At that moment the sandman or Sandy arrived, in a golden plane made completely out of dream sand which disappeared shortly after his arrival as he floated to the floor. "Sandy" North greeted briskly.
The short little mute formed images above his head, trying to convey to North that he was extremely busy as this time of the night, when all the children were getting into bed.
North held up a hand to stop Sandy "I know, I know but I wouldn't have called you all here unless it was serious" he reminded them and Tooth shushed her little fairy helpers, listening intently.
"My fellow Guardians" North began now that he had they're attention.
"It is our job to watch over the children of the world and keep them safe. To bring wonder, hope, and dreams. And so, I've called us all here for one reason and one reason only. The children are in danger. An enemy we have kept at bay for centuries has finally decided to strike back. We alone can stop him" he explained crossing his arms in deep thought exposing his tattoos naughty and nice on his forearms.
They moved closer together as North continued "The boogeyman was here at the pole" he told them as they exchanged looks of deep concern.
Tooth looked the most surprised "Pitch? Pitch Black? Here?" she stuttered wondering if she had heard correctly.
North nodded his head gravely "Yes! There was black sand covering the globe. And then a shadow" he shouted.
"What do you mean black sand? I thought you said you saw Pitch" Bunnymund questioned in confusion.
"Well not exactly" North confessed. Bunnymund twitched in annoyance pulling an egg out of thin air, beginning to paint decorations on it with a paint brush who knows where that came from either.
"Not exactly? Can you believe this guy" he motioned at North directing his comment at Sandy.
Who shrugged with a dream sand question mark above his head "Yeah, you said it, Sandy".
"Look, Pitch is up to something very bad. I feel it, in my belly" he jiggled his belly in emphasis.
"Hang on. You mean to say you summoned me here three days before Easter because of your belly" Bunnymund asked thoroughly ticked.
"Mate, if I did this to you three days before Christmas" he trailed off chuckling lightly to himself as he imagined what that would look like.
Tooth shouted some orders to her mini worker fairies while the two argued. "Please Bunny. Easter is not Christmas" North dismissed giving Bunny a pat on the cheek and swiping his egg.
Tooth continued to give orders in the background and Sandy drank some eggnog while trying to keep the cup away from a thirsty elf. "Here we go" Bunny sighed throwing his hands into the air dramatically "North, I don't have time for this. I've still got two million eggs to finish up".
"No matter how much you paint, it is still an egg" North contradicted wiggling the egg he had snagged in Bunny's face.
"Look mate I'm dealing with perishables" Bunny defended snatching the egg back "You've got all year to prepare".
While everyone had they're head stuck in business, Sandy noticed the moon shining down in through the open roof window and dropped his cup in surprise. He frantically tried to get the attention of the other Guardians, as the thirsty elf licked any remaining liquid from the cup he had dropped beside him.
"Why are rabbits always so nervous" North wondered giving Bunnymund a slight shove causing him to fumble with the egg he was holding.
"Why are you always such a blowhard" Bunnymund retorted regaining his balance and holding the egg firmly in his grip.
Tooth flew in between the two while having a conversation with her mini fairies. "Tooth" North called getting her attention "Can't you see we're trying to argue" he told motioning at himself and Bunnymund.
"Sorry, not all of us get to work one night a year" she apologised being meet by a chorus of agreeing tweets from her mini fairies.
"Am I right Sandy" Tooth asked as the sand man while he agreed he was trying to tell her about the moon, unfortunately Tooth got a bit side-tracked with her duty again.
Back to North and Bunnymund's argument "Come on, Pitch went out with the dark ages. We made sure of that, remember" Bunny asked rhetorically.
"I know it was him. We have a serious situation" North insisted seriously.
"Well, I've got a serious situation with some eggs" Bunny dismissed nonchalantly.
Sandy now fed up with being ignored grabbed the elf that had stolen his drink and shook him furiously with one arm. The rest of the guardians stopped what they were doing to stare at their frowning other member. Sandy relaxed and dropped the elf roughly now he finally had they're attention and showed them a picture of a crescent moon above his head.
"Aah! Man in the Moon" North cried "Sandy why didn't you say something" he asked turning to look at the full moon.
Sandy grew angry again at this comment and dream sand blew out of his ears like a steam train. North unaware of this angry look spoke to the moon "It's been a long time old friend. What is the big news" he inquired curiously.
A single circular beam of moonlight lit up the floor in the centre of the four guardians surrounded it. In this spot light the silhouette of a heinous laughing man appeared, instantly they all knew who it was.
"It is Pitch" Bunnymund's jaw dropped in surprise.
Ignoring the rabbit's reaction North looked to the moon for guidance "Manny, what must we do" shooting Bunny a sideways glance and patting his belly like saying I told you so. The beam shone brighter before shrinking down in size to a thin circle of light.
The light fell on a decorative floor symbol though it wasn't really for decoration at all. The symbol raised from the ground the top sliding open and a large crystal gem rose out from within. Light refracted from the crystal, sending its shine all around the room making it look like they were all underwater.
Tooth gasped "Uh guys, you know what this means" he asked.
"He's choosing a new Guardian" North realised.
"What? Why?" Bunny questioned not at all happy about it.
"Must be big deal, Manny thinks we need help" North speculated.
"Since when do we need help" Bunnymund cried ticked again.
"I wonder who it will be" Tooth asked excitedly.
Sandy showed dream sand four leaf clover above his head and Tooth nodded in understanding "Maybe the Leprechaun".
"Please not the Groundhog, please not the Ground hog" Bunny pleaded his hands together like he was praying.
Bright light blasted the room blinding the Guardians momentarily as something similar to a holographic projection shone above the crystal. The picture above the crystal was of not one but two hooded figures standing back to back, on the right their hands were entwined together in a vice like grip.
The first was in a blue hoodie and had what resembled a shepherd staff in his left hand. The other was in a red hoodie bent at exactly the right angle so that they're face was shrouded in the shadows.
The only features that distinguished this figure was the red hoodie had a black paw print on its front though the figure was also holding a card in they're right hand and looking down on it.
"Jack Frost, and another…" North stated while rubbing his long white beard.
Mini fairies seeing the figure of Jack Frost gasped in excitement, one almost fainting from the sight of him. "Two newbies you've got to be kidding me, I take it back the Groundhog's fine" Bunnymund complained loudly.
"Well, ah as long as they help to ah, protect the children right?" Tooth comforted.
"Jack Frost is one problem but the last thing we need is two problems" Bunnymund affirmed motioning at the second figure.
"I don't think I've ever seen any spirit like this before" Tooth added buzzing around the crystal "What do you suppose this means" she asked pointing at how Jack Frost and the mystery figure's hands were knotted together.
"I don't know Tooth, it could mean any number of things" North confessed.
"Perhaps they're fates are entwined or they already know each other or maybe even that they're together right now" he offered.
"Great so now we have to find a mystery figure and then Jack Frost? He doesn't care about children! All he does is freeze water pipes and mess with my egg hunts. Right? He's an irresponsible, selfish-".
"Guardian" North finished "And whoever this second guardian is they must be an important addition to our team if Manny has chosen them" he reasoned.
"I don't see why we need any help at all especially not from someone we know nothing about. And Jack Frost may be many things but he is not a Guardian" Bunnymund decided finally.
YAY!
Oh Bunnymund if only you knew
that Isis will be a bigger problem than you could even imagine
For you and Pitch MWAHAHAHAHAHAH!
ANYWAY!
I have something to ask you guys

anyways what I wanted to ask you guys
is what should happen in the story
I amsuming all the people that read this story would have seen the RotG movie already
so what I wanna know is
When Jack goes to take Sophie home from the warren
Should Isis
A.) Go with Jack to take sophie home and evidently find Pitch in his lair
or
B.) Stay behind at the Warren and defend it from Pitch's attack
either way we'll probably have a scene where Pitch and Isis have a little chat
I could choose by myself cause I could go either way really but I just wanted to know what you guys think
so if you'd be so kind to help me out with this I'd be ever so greatful
whichever opion gets the most votes wins and i will do that choice
