IM BBBBBBAAAAACCCCKKKKK! That's right baby! Queencgamer is back and ready to get this story back on track! I want to thank all my followers! I have had the worst case of writers block and the chapter your about to read is inspired by my great grandmother...who sadly passed away a month before this movie was out. She always told me to accept everyone for who they are and never believe in the word never.

I DO NOT OWN RISE OF THE GUARDIANS!...I rather own Kung Fu Panda


Sophies POV

After a few minutes of staring at the image of me (A/N I'm not exactly sure how I want Sophie to look in guardian form for now lets just pretend that she looks like the character NiGHTS..without the hat. Kay?) the image slowly disappears and the crystal is put away. After a few minutes of silence I begin to do what any reasonable person would do in a situation like this...I passed out.

~20 minutes later~

"Sophie are you ok?'

"Oh my gosh is she ok she's been out for a while?"

"Don't worry Toothina, she's just a bit ..surprised."

"Maybe, we should try waking the Sheila up now?"

"Good idea Bunny. But how?"

"..."

"~Hey Sophie if you don't wake I'm going to draw a mustache on your face~."

"IM AWAKE! DONT DRAW ON MY...face?'

It took me a few minutes to register what was going on as I saw Jack trying hard not to laugh and the rest of the guardians shooting glares at him.

"JACK!" they all said in unison.

But he just started chuckling and pointed towards me finally bursting out laughing. Geez, I haven't seen Jack laugh this much since he did a prank on Bunny that turned him pink for a week...long story.

"Ugh...my head." I started to stand but my legs gave out and I went crashing to the floor again until I felt a pair of strong furry arms grab my waist and hoist me back up to my feet.

"Wouldn't want you getting reacquainted to the ground, now would we ankle-biter?' I look up to see Bunny giving me a concerned grin and l felt my face heat up just at the sight of it.

"I'm sure the ground wouldn't mind, after all we seem to meet each other a lot." I say getting out of his grip and look over to the guardians "So, what dose this mean exactly?"

North was the first one to speak up.

"Well Sophie it means Manny has chose you to be a guardian!" he says arms outstretched and a twinkle in his eye.

My eyes went wide when I suddenly remembered the image of me shown by the crystal. I took minutes to process what was happening inside my head until a question popped up inside my head.

"Guardian of what?" I ask curiously . I never did understand how the guardians knew what the supposed to represent. Did mine show in my personality like Jacks? Or did I also represent some sort of holiday like Bunny and North?

I notice North and Jack look at each other with Jack shaking his head muttering something about Deja Vu when North suddenly turns his attention towards me.

"Sophie, come this way."

He motions me to follow him and when I did I cast a worried look to the rest of the guardians. They all gave me reassuring smiles and went to see if Sandy had woke up yet.

I continue too follow him until we reached a room that looked liked his private quarters. It was filled with all sorts of toys, sweets and magical looking ice carvings. I looked at North to see him holding a tray of cookies.

"Cookie?" he ask holding it out the tray to me

I was about to decline when my stomach grumbles loudly. I blush a bit and grab a triple chocolate chip cookie and mutter a thank you.

"Ok" he says setting the tray down and turning towards me. He stare at me for a moment before asking me a question.

"Sophie, do you know what I protect in kids all around the world?" he ask me stroking his beard looking at me for a answer

"Wonder" I said immediately. It was one of my personal favorite things about North. I always admired how he protected the wonder in kids and how his spirit and passion doe kids and Christmas never burned down.

"Correct, but do you know what makes me a guardian? He ask tossed me what looked like a tiny doll.

"Umm..." Now that I thought about I never did think about what really made the guardians...well guardians. I look down at the tiny doll he tossed me now seeing it clearly. It was one of those small Russian dolls the you stack together but this one seemed a bit more unique than any other doll. It was painted to look like a small baby with huge blue eyes and a cute smile. Ok so the doll represented North but how? I look back at North realizing what he meant.

"Your eyes that see wonder in everything, right?" I ask hoping I got it correct

He gives me a wind smile and suddenly leans in a bit closer.

"Yes! Huge eyes,eyes that can see the wonder in everything around me. They see lights, trees and magic in the air."

He gestures to his workshop and I see what he means. You could practically fill the magic and wonder in the atmosphere . I see hundreds of toys, the big globes and the yetis always hard at work. Sometimes I dreamed about what it means to be a guardians to childhood. I guess its different for each guardians. But I would have never guessed it was Santa's eyes that brought out the magic in everything always protecting the wonder it kids.

"This wonder is what I put into the world and its what I protect within children. It is my center. Its what makes me a guardian." He suddenly looks back at me

"What is your center?"

I looked at the ground with a unsure look.

" I don't know."

I felt North put the tiny doll in my hand wrap my fingers around it. He gave me a smile and I smiled back.I knew I was going to be ok. After all with the help of the guardians I know can find my center. Until then I was going to help track down this new threat to the guardians. Nothing was going to stand in my way of that, epically if this thing could be after children next. Guardian or not I'm going to protect the kids of the world if its the last things I do.. hopefully is not the last thing I do.

"GUYS"

We turn to see Toothina at the flying up to us in a panic.

"What is the problem Tooth?" North ask her as I stash the wooden doll in my pocket for later.

"Sandy's coughing up black stuff!"


Cliffhanger time! Oh BTW the winner of what Sophie is going to be is ...drumroll please

FAITH!
