"There it is!" Tooth said, pointing out of the sleigh and down at the ground at the lake.
"Down boy, down!" North ordered his reindeer.
"Mates? Is that Jamie? And his friends? What are they doing here!? In this weather too!?" Bunny said confused.
The sleigh crashed down with difficulty due to the storm on the ice as the guardians spilled out one by one and rushed over the the kids who looked up at them with blank faces.
Sandy came first and saw the passed out Jamie. A large and bright exclamation mark appeared over his head. Tooth who was behind Sandy cupped her hands over her mouth and tears sprung to her eyes making her long eye lashes sparkle.
North and Bunny stared at their friend's reactions.
"What's the matter, mates?" Bunny said looking at Tooth and Sandy before his gaze met the children and Jamie. "Oh dear..." Bunny said mournfully.
North walked over squinting through the icy wind before gazing upon Jamie. "What happened!?" North demanded at the children.
"Jack! H-he blasted Jamie!" Claude said.
Pippa sniffed, recovering from her crying. "But I know Jack didn't mean it! I could see it in his... eyes. His yellow eyes...?" Pippa said looking up at the guardians.
"Yea! Why was Jack all black and pale with black hair and yellow eyes? Kinda reminds me of Pitch!" Cupcake ranted.
The guardians looked at each other with wide eyes. Jack looked like Pitch? Oh no. The guardians realized what that shot was doing to Jack. Jack was turning evil! That explains him losing control of his powers!
"I feel terrible." Monty said.
"Why?" Says Tooth sweetly squatting next to Monty while everyone else and the guardians huddled around in a circle.
"The last thing we all said to Jack was really mean. We told him to get lost and scolded him on striking Jamie when we knew that he didn't mean it." Caleb said almost coming to tears himself.
"And the look on his face when he accidentally hit Jamie. He felt so bad. I think he was crying when he ran off as well. This is all our fault. What's gonna happen to him!?" Pippa said with terror and worry.
The guardians didn't want to break to the children what was going to happen to Jack. And the couldn't just stand their with the kids freezing to death in the storm. They had to find Jack! Or, if... Jack wasn't looking for them in an attempt to kill them.
"I'm sure Jack knew you children didn't mean it. Now, in the sleigh everyone! Hurry! You too children, and bring Jamie! We'll deal with your parents later! We got to find Jack! Quickly now!" North said running towards his sleigh.
After everyone piled in, there wasn't an inch of seat left. Tooth and Sandy even offered to fly next to the sleigh so there would be room but it was too dangerous in the storm so Bunny courageously hung on to the side. That's what Jack would have done.
"Are you sure it's safe for the children to come!?" Tooth said to North over the storm with Sandy agreeing.
"We need them! Now more than ever! If it is too late, and Jack is-well...you know! They are our only hope in bringing him back!" North said whipping his reindeer and making the sleigh take off into the sky.
The guardians knew North was right but was concerned for the children. This was dangerous business. They were going to have to face off Pitch, his fear-lings and Jack. They couldn't let the children get hurt. But they knew they wouldn't. They were the guardians!
"Where are we going!?" Bunny said, clutching on to the side of the sleigh for dear life. He felt like carrots...
"Pitch's lair! It's our best bet!" North shouted back.
Sandy turned around and knocked out all the children with his sleep powder. It was going to be a bumpy ride. Tooth and Baby Tooth (who was in the sleigh the whole time) rubbed the children sharing their warmth and started to hum a melody.
The guardians weren't prepared for whatever they were going to face. They knew, but they hated to admit it. They were going to have to fight their best friend, Jack Frost.
-In Pitch's Lair-
"Rise." Pitch said to his apprentice.
"Pitch Black." His apprentice replied and bowed respectfully.
"We have business to take care of. Do you have a killer instinct today, my boy?" Pitch cooed to his apprentice as he tossed Jack Frost's staff to him.
The staff glowed then dimmed. When it fell into the hands of Pitch's apprentice, black sand weaved into the stick's bindings. And ice started to cover the outer layer.
"Come along, Jack." Pitch ordered his apprentice to follow.
"Yes sir." The yellow eyed apprentice said in a flat, dark and cool voice.
Yes, it was done. Jack Frost had become evil. Another Pitch Black. Destined to cause pain, suffering and death. Make children stop believing in the guardians, and make them believe in him and Pitch. Make the children fear the duo. Spread nightmares. It was a nightmare come true to the evil Jack Frost and no one could stop him.

We're here everyone! Let's go! Children, stay close." North said strongly as he rolled out of the sleigh. Heavily landing on the the grassy floor. They are now surrounded by forest.
The guardians piled out as Bunny fell back and collapsed to the floor giving it kisses. The children hoped out regaining their consciousness and was ready for a good fight!
"Lets' get 'em!" Cupcake roared.
The twins gave each other high fives while Pippa and Monty held hands. Jamie was in front of the kids but kept his head down. His hand was on his cheek that had a severe scar on it. It stung.
Why? Jamie thought. Why Jack why? Jamie was distraught. For he did not see or hear what Jack had done after he struck him and did not overhear the conversation between his friends and the guardians regarding Jack's feelings.
In one large group, the guardians and children approached a whole in the ground. One by one (except for the twins, Pippa and Monty) jumped into the whole and slid down it. The guardians went first so they could catch the kids. Jamie went in last of the children.
As soon as Jamie set foot into the dark place, a cackle came from all directions. The guardians took out their weapons as the children braced themselves.
"There you are! And you brought your pets too! Me and my apprentice were beginning to think that you wouldn't show up." Pitch taunted, revealing himself. He said pets referring to the kids.
"Alright Pitch! Tell us where Jack is or I'll-" Tooth said flying up to Pitch in an attempt to slice him but missed as Pitch fell back into the shadows.
"Or what? Bad Tooth... not in front of the kids! Anyway, I'm not looking for a fight." Pitch said now appearing on the other side of his large 'living room'.
"If it isn't a fight you want Pitch, then what you bloody coward!" Bunny scoffed, raising his boomerangs.
"Oh, apprentice! We have guests!" Pitch said, lurking back into the shadows. "I'll leave you to deal with them, as a treat. Do whatever your dark and evil heart desires..." Pitch's voice trailed off as another shadow started to appear.
The guardians tightened their fists and shuffled themselves in front of the children. What was that shadow? They didn't have to wait long to find out.
"Boo." There he stood, Jack Frost. With his black hair, dark gray skin, black sweatshirt, staff and all. Stood before the guardians and children. Gazing down on them with his glowing yellow eyes.
"Holy sh-" Bunny cussed.
"Language!" Tooth corrected nodding towards the kids.
"Jack...?" North said hesitantly.
"Oh, I'm not that Jack anymore..." Evil Jack said flying onto a pillar.
The guardians said nothing. And the children stood their petrified. Was that Jack they saw? The happy Winter Spirit? No, it couldn't possibly be. They said to themselves. But they knew they were wrong. There, dancing on the pillar was Jack Frost. Evil Jack Frost.
