Pitch shook his head and looked up only to see an ice lane coming at him. He pulled up on his steed and then looked on the other side with a distasteful look.

Jack moved down the street, making it as icy as can be. The other Guardians and Jamie rode on metal lids and were having a blast.

Jack floated above them, weaving in and out of the fast moving spirits. Although his face showed excitement his mind and heart were cracked with pain. He didn't think Tsuki would do that... but she did.

His eyes averted upwards and he made an ice ramp in which the Guardians and Jamie launched off of. They went off another ramp and landed with a bump. Jack laughed as he sped ahead, ready to get the kids.

Jamie knocked on a girls window. She woke up and ran over, opening it with a shocked expression.

"Jamie, how are you doing that?"

"Jack Frost! Come on, we need your help!"

Jamie flew away as the girl stood still, watching after them. A blue snowflake landed on her nose and she blinked, seeing Jack Frost holding Jamie with one arm and flying away, looking back at her.

"It's Jack!"

They slid past a house, Santa throwing in a present. They looked out just seeing Santa past followed by Bunnymund and Tooth.

"Merry Christmas!"

"Happy Easter!"

"Don't forget to floss!"

The two boys watched as Cupcake passed them with a huge grin.

They all raced down the iced road, screaming with delight.

"Santa's real!"

"The Tooth's Fairy is real!"

"They're all real!"

They finally slid to a stop downtown. Jack looked up with wide eyes and watched as a dark sand cloud hovered with delight over the town. It changed it a wave state, as if it was water and was going to wash out the town. Jack stood and stared.

"You think a few children can help you? Against this?" Pitch waved his hand out in front of the mass.

Tsuki stayed within the sand, trying to search for herself. She knew she had done wrong, the hurt in Jack's eyes told her that. She jumped as a flash of lightening past her. It was like a huge rain cloud that would give more than a little rain and thunder. She looked down at the other Guardians.

"How could they ever know..." Her eyes looked down.

Santa staggered forward, but was caught by Tooth and Jack. Jack turned back to Jamie, praying he wouldn't be scared. Jamie, was in fact, scared. Jack saw it in his brown eyes.

"Jamie, it's just a bad dream."

"We'll protect you mate..."

"Aw, you won't protect them." Pitch said with a snarl. "But who will protect you?"

Jack moved forward, gripping his staff tightly. He had to fight, he couldn't let the hopes and dreams of these kids be lost. Jamie looked around and then took a deep breath. He moved forward and stood just in front of Jack.

"I will."

Jack's eyes moved over and stared at the small boy. Cupcake pushed through the other kids and around the other Guardians.

"I will." She stood next to Jamie.

The other kids pushed forward to.

"I will."

"I will."

"I'll do it to."

"I'll try..."

Jamie looked back up to Jack with approval. He gave him a weary look and then looked back up at Pitch.

"Still think there's such a thing like Boogey Man?"

The black sand crashed down into the street and then moved like a withering snake towards them; shattering the lights out.

"I do believe in you... I'm just not afraid of you." Jamie said with some edginess to his voice.

The black sand rose up and then fell down towards the kids and the Guardians. Jamie stuck his hand out and the black sand crashed into it. What came from Jamie's hand was not black sand, but golden sand of hope. It cracked along the black sand and then burst with excitement. It divided itself into separate little streams. They moved around the Guardians and children and throughout the little street. Everyone looked at them with excitement and hope.

"Maybe they can defeat you..."

Pitch snarled at Tsuki, hitting her with the back of his hand. Her head was jerked to the side.

"You keep quiet. I don't need commentary from a brat like you who doesn't get believed in..."

A stream of golden sand raced up past them. Pitch dodged it quickly and then looked down at the group astonished.

Tsuki was looking behind Pitch, not turning her head. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She wanted to come here, and now, look what she had done. She put everyone in a spiral worse than if she wasn't here. Maybe, not being believed in was a good thing...

She felt herself drop from where Pitch was and getting closer to the ground.

"Why try to be believed in, if I only bring trouble?"

Everyone danced in delight. Tooth was zipping around with a huge grin as Santa did a small victory dance with two swords raised.

"No, no! Get them!" Pitch ordered the steeds.

They raced at them with hatred.

"Come on, come on!" Bunnymund hopped. He heard something behind him and looked. "Oh, no. Cricky." He hopped away.

Steeds were all over. A bunch were racing down the street. Santa pulled out two orbs and smashed them behind him as two giant portals opened and a bunch of yetis came out. They ran past the two brothers as they looked up with awe and wonder. The other kids watched the toys zoom about with courageous adrenaline.

Bunnymund, on the other hand, was hopping about and found a car. He dove under it as the steeds stopped and one of them stuck their nuzzles underneath, just barely grabbing the bunny's tail. It pulled out a large and very smart bunny.

"G'day mate." Bunnymund smirked, twirling two boomerangs.

He pushed himself off of the steed and spun into the air, throwing his boomerangs. He landed as they hit the steeds and they dissipated. He took a few steps and tapped the ground with his foot. A large hole was formed and out of it came large, egg shaped statues. One came out and lifted a kid onto it's head.

"Come on!" Bunnymund shouted.

The toys, children, Guardians, and, yes, even elves raced towards the darkness with a strong fighting feeling. Jack stood back and watched with a large smile. He finally jumped up and landed on a roof of a store. Pitch turned and saw as Jack ran towards him.

He sent an ice blast at Pitch that missed him. Pitch, with an aggravated look, jumped off his horse and ran. Jack chased him and stopped when an arrow of sand shot at him. Tooth crushed it before it hit Jack.

"Thanks Tooth!"

They were now on the rooftops, ever so slowly getting closer and closer to Pitch. They fought against the dark sand, smashing it and moving on to the next batch.

Santa popped up on a roof and gave a smirk. He turned around and then gave a wild expression.

"Wrong roof."

He took a step back and then ran of the roof as Pitch jumped off of his. They clashed. Santa with his swords, and Pitch with a scythe. They landed on the ground and clashed some more. Bunnymund hopped over and sent a boomerang flying. Pitch got his scythe stuck and tried to pull it out, dodging the boomerang and Tooth's aerial attack. He pulled it out in time to defend against Jack's staff. Who, instead, kicked Pitch backwards.

Jack stepped back and crouched down, his staff pointing towards Pitch. Santa stood on his left, swords at the ready. Bunnymund crouched on Jack's right and held onto his boomerangs tightly, waiting for another opening. Finally, Tooth hovered in the back and waited for the next attempt.

"What's that?" A boy asked looking at the golden sand running through his fingers.

Jamie gave a concentrated look and then lit up.

"I got it!" he turned and ran off, waving for the others to follow.

"This is it Pitch, there's no place to hide." Jack growled at him. Moving his staff down along his side.

Pitch looked around and then sunk into the pavement with a menacing laugh, leaving behind a little girl. Her dress was shifting back and forth between white and black. Her ribbon around her waist shifted as well, mixing the two colors of a dark blue and a light purple as if they were battling themselves.

"Tsuki!"

Jack ran over and crouched over her.

"Tsuki, speak to me." He had a panicked look.

A small moan escaped her pale lips. Her mind was in a dark place and she tried to leave several times, but each time, it seemed that she had only grown weaker. Jack laid her back down and stood up, looking up to the sky with the rest of the Guardians. Little did her know, Pitch slowly appeared from the pavement behind him, rising his scythe above his head.

Bunnymund turned around. "Jack look out!" He threw a boomerang and was deflected off of Pitch's scythe before Jack turned around. He looked up with wide eyes.

Pitch was about to bring it down, but then suddenly, a golden sand whip wrapped around Pitch's hands and yanked him backwards and pulled him towards a small mesh of golden sand.

Jack looked at the sand with surprise, but gratitude. Everyone else watched as the sand swirled around.

Sandy moved out from the glowing vortex and gave Pitch the death look. Pitch looked at him with horror. Sandy stared and then brought up a figure and waved it at him. Pitch gave a weird look in return as he felt a soft fist hit him skyward.

"Sandman." Jamie said as the other kids came out from some shadows.

Sandy made a hat and tilted it at Jamie. Jamie saluted back and watched as Sandy looked up at Pitch and whipped the whip back down. Pitch landed further back behind him. Jack lifted Tsuki up in his arms and ran over as the other Guardians gathered around Sandy. They were all so happy to see him back unharmed from the wickedness of Pitch.

Sandy lifted up into the sky spinning, and as he got high enough, he sent out small streams of gold sand that stretched towards the houses. They moved into the house with care and swirled around the children's heads; giving them sweet and hopeful dreams.

Everyone bustled excitedly with joy as the lights appeared on the globes at Pitch's underground place, the North Pole, and anywhere else there was a globe that showed believing kids.

Jack smiled up at Sandy as a mutter came from Tsuki.

"Jack..."

Jack looked down at Tsuki, his smile gone and replaced by concern.

"Tsuki, are you alright?"

Tsuki opened her moving purple and blue eyes and looked up at Jack. She slowly reached up to his cheek and placed a gentle hand.

"Thank you..."

Jack felt someone pull him back and watched as a large foot landed just in front of him. He looked up as a dinosaur passed him along with sting rays and any other creation the kids were making. He looked back down as Tsuki, this time a hopeful smile.

"Don't thank me, thank the kids."

Tsuki looked out at the group of kids that were jumping about with joy and chatting away about the creations. Jack tilted his arms and set Tsuki down. She wobbled, but Jack kept a close arm wrapped around her waist to keep her from falling.

"They won't see me..."

"Come on, it doesn't hurt to try."

Tsuki looked up at Jack with hurt. She had just woken from a horrible battle with the darkness and she still had a long way to go, and he wanted her to see if the kids could see her? There was no chance in that happening. They moved over to where Jamie was and stopped. Jamie looked up at Jack with a huge grin.

"This is amazing!"

"I know... Jamie, could I ask you something?"

Jamie looked at him with curiosity. His arm was around something tightly and protectively, but Jamie couldn't see what it was.

"Yeah."

"Can you see her?"

Jack motioned with his eyes towards Tsuki. Jamie followed and saw nothing. He shook his head. Tsuki felt hot tears forming in her eyes. There was no point, no one would ever see her.

"Who is it?" Jamie asked with wonder.

"She is-"

"The moon."
