The Battle for Belief Part 1:
Thunder and lightning crackled in the sky, startling all of the Guardians, especially Bunny. They looked up and saw Pitch standing on a swirling cloud smirking triumphantly down on them.
The Guardians realised that he was here for Jamie.
"Get Jamie out of here!" Jack ordered before he and Janet took off to attack Pitch.
"Be careful, guys!" Arya warned.
Jack and Janet flew up as fast they could to meet and face Pitch.
"Jack and Janet Frost!?" Pitch was frustrated that they had repaired the sources of their powers. However he just laughed thinking nothing could stop him so he gathered all of his power making it swirl around him as he dove towards them. "Let's end this, shall we?!"
Jack and Janet sent out blasts of sand at Pitch from their staff and hands but he blocked it. "That little trick doesn't work on me anymore!" He sent a huge blast of black sand at Jack and Janet. Jack dodged it but Janet was struck and started falling to the city below.
"No one does that to my sister!" Jack shouted try to charge at Pitch again but he sent a bigger blast at him and he fell to the city below as well. Pitch chuckled and started pursuing after the others.
Bunny was leading the way but he led them into some streets and dead ends, "This way, this way!" He hopped forward but stopped. "Ahhh, dead end! Other way, other way!" Tooth, Arya and Jamie started running but North was hobbling as he struggled to catch up with them.
Jack and Janet landed at a corner with a painful thud.
"Jack! Janet!" Jamie screamed rushing to them. The others' eyes widened and they came to the twins as well. The two groaned with pan.
"That was good try, Jack and Janet - A for effort," North attempted to lift their spirits.
"He's stronger," Jack groaned in pain.
"We can't beat him," Janet lamented feeling already defeated.
The storm above their heads, crackled again. Pitch's laughing voice echoed the atmosphere.
"All this fuss over one little boy and still he refuses to stop believing!"
"You don't decide whether he believes or not!" Janet retorted hiding Jamie behind him.
"Very well. There are other ways to snuff out a light," Pitch's voice spooked them as his shadow form waved its hand over the lamps cracking them and making the surroundings dark and scary.
"If you want him, you're gonna have to go through me!" Bunny defended coming in front of Jamie and the others.
"Oh, look how fluffy you are!" Pitch mocked as his shadow hand poked at Bunny from the ground. "Would you like a scratch behind the ears?"
Bunny was actually scared so Arya bent down and he hopped into her hands.
"Don't you even think about it!" Arya warned Pitch.
"I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see you all like this!" Pitch cackled cruelly as he, his steed and the Nightmares shifted out of the shadows. "You all look awful,"
Jamie was scared; he peered up at the Twins with fear in his eyes.
"Jack, Janet…I'm scared," he fretted.
Jack and Janet remembered that their little sister siad the exact same thing. They both crouched in front of Jamie. "I- I know, I know, but you're gonna be alright," Jack assured Jamie, the same he did 300 years ago.
"We're gonna have a little fun instead," Janet finished. "That's it - that's our center," Jamie looked at her confused. "We'll explain later," she whispered to him.
Pitch chuckles trying to scare the poor kid. "So what do you think, Jamie? Do you believe in the Boogey- AH!"
It was cut off by his face being hit by a snowball.
Nightmares went on alert, feeling confused.
Pitch tried to speak again but another snowball hit him.
A little laugh escaped Jamie's mouth and the others too.
Jack and Janet were laughing along as they held up snowballs. Janet spotted some sleighs and turned to her brother, "I've got an idea but we're goanna need some help,"
"Let's go get your friends," Jack suggested to Jamie.
Pitch cleared the snow from his face; his nightmares shrieked in fear as an ice path was formed between them. Jack and Janet were flying down the road with the ice slide being formed behind them with their magic. Trailing behind them were the others on slid able things like a trash can pin, a chuck of wood etc.
Everyone was enjoying it. Even Bunny enjoyed himself for a brief moment. Jack and Janet directed the path they were making together to the huge ice swirling path they had formed when they made Jamie slide everywhere. The Guardians screamed as they went in a circle and then went through the air. Bunny in his sort of sleigh was caught in North's hands.
Cupcake was sleeping uneasily when a snowball woke her by banging against her window. She sat up to see what it was bunt then her eyes twinkled when magic snow fell into her eyes.
Pippa was enjoying the gentle, falling snow in her room when there was a knock on her window. Her eyes widened at Jamie being held in midair by two invisible hands.
She opened it, "Jamie, how are you doing that?
"The Frost Twins: Jack and Janet! Come on, we need your help!" Jamie alerted as he was carried away.
Pippa was confused at how he was flying when snow went into her eyes now. She saw two flying winter spirits holding Jamie by his hands, "Hey, aren't they…?"
"Jack and Janet Frost!" Monty answered for her from next door at his window as he zipped up his coat.
Claude and Caleb had awoken and were enjoying unexpected snow when presents appeared like magic on their beds. They dashed to their window and saw the Guardians sliding by.
North greeted calling out, "Merry Christmas!"
Bunny greeted as well. "Happy Easter!"
"Don't forget to floss!" Tooth advised.
Soon all of Jamie's friends join him and the Guardians outside on sleighs.
They were all laughing as they were enjoying all the fun that the Frost Twins were giving everyone.
Pippa over her laughter had something to admit to Jamie. "Jamie, you were right!"
"The Easter Bunny's real!" Caleb admitted.
"And the Tooth Fairy!" Pippa added in.
"And Santa!" Monty finished with. "They're all real!"
The gang slide to a halt in downtown, where they saw Pitch's army waiting for them.
"Whoo! Yeah-hah!" Monty was cheering but when he noticed what everyone else is looking at, he dashed behind North screaming in fear.
"You think a few children can help you? Against this?" Pitch cackled gesturing to his rumbling, stampeding waves of nightmare sand.
North tried to hold up his sword to fight but he was too weak. Tooth tried to as well but like North couldn't. Jamie looked incredibly worried but Jack and Janet gave him reassuring words to try and build up bravery.
"They're just bad dreams, Jamie," Jack told him. "They can't hurt you,"
"Jack's right. It's okay to be scared," Janet convinced him. "Everyone gets scared; just don't ever let what scares you make you feel down,"
"We'll protect you, mate," Bunny promised.
"Oh, you'll protect them?" Pitch laughed "But who will protect you?"
The Guardians were actually scared. For centuries they had protected children but no one ever protected them.
Jack and Janet stepped forward to protect the children but Jamie went in front of them. "I will," he vowed.
"I will!" Cupcake vowed.
"I will!" Claude added himself in.
"I will," Caleb stepped in.
"And me," Pippa vowed not wanting to have her friends facing darkness and fear alone.
"I- I'll try," Monty attempted.
Both Jack and Janet looked at Jamie admiring him for his bravery.
"Still think there's no such thing as the Boogeyman?" Pitch challenged. The Nightmares began charging, closing in on the Guardians and the kids.
"I do believe in you. I'm just not afraid of you," Jamie proclaimed.
