The next morning; early, Jack got out of bed and walked to where the guardians would meet. The guardians were already awake. "Good morning Jack,"North said with a smile, "how is she?"
"Her parents were killed by Pitch." Jack said. The guardians gasped. "I have to protect her most of all from him harming her. She had nightmares last night, and I told her that I would become her GUARDIAN guardian."
"Jack. How are we going to fight Pitch? We thought he was sealed underground for good!" Tooth said. "I don't know."
Just then, Hope came into the room. "Good morning." Hope said. "Good morning Hope." Jack said as he took her hand. "Jack, I was wondering, what is my title? Like you help with frost and snow, Tooth collects teeth, Bunny paints eggs, and Santa makes toys."
"Well, lets see your abilities. Come over here and believe happy thoughts, then your powers will come to you." Jack replied leading her to the middle of the room. Hope took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and thought about her being a guardian, a great one. Then, she made snowflakes, and frost with her fingertips, and she rose up. She was flying! A blue light surrounded her. She then gently stepped onto the ground. Jack gasped, "You're like me!"
"I guess I am! I never knew I could do this before-"
She was cut off by black dust sweeping around her. "What's happening?" she yelped. There was Pitch. He grabbed Hope and was flying back up into the sky. "JACK!" Hope yelled as her voice was fainting from being too far away. "HOPE!" Jack and the other guardians ran towards Santa's sleigh. They all hopped in and off the reindeer went. "We're coming Hope!" Jack said as the sleigh went high in the sky.
"Let go of me!" Hope screamed at Pitch. He just ignored her. He brought her to his hiding place and locked her in a cage. All she could do, was wait. She looked around the creepy place. She drifted off to sleep. Pitch put bad dreams in her head. Hope whimpered in her sleep and said "Jack... Jack help me..."
"Jack will never come for you. You will never see him again under my watch!" Pitch laughed hideously. "Once your little friend Frostbite comes, I will kill you RIGHT in front of him! Then, I will take over the world, and make it dark forever!"
"North! Can this sleigh go any faster?!" Jack asked. "Well let's see here... radio, no...brake, definitely no... aha! Booster! Hold onto your hat!" All of them screamed because the sleigh was going way too fast, but they had to to catch up with Pitch. They finally landed at Pitch's hideout. "I'm going alone." Jack said. "Jack, you can't go alone in there! It's much too dangerous!" Bunny exclaimed. "I will call you If I need you." Jack said as he walked into the dark, murky crypt. Then, Jack heard whimpering. "Hope!" Jack exclaimed as he ran to the cage which Hope was trapped in. "Jack! Pitch is going to..." she gulped, "kill me in front of you! I am so scared Jack!" Hope cried. A dark voice echoed off the walls, "You should be. Jack, what a surprise You're just in time for the finale!" Pitch cackled. Pitch grabbed Hope by the neck. He was choking her. "Let her go Pitch!" Jack rose his staff in the air, which pulsed a large amount of frost and snow out of the top. Pitched dropped Hope in the ground. Hope ran to Jack. She clung on him with all her might. "Jack, quick. Mix our powers and the guardians together." Jack quickly responded and whistled. Tooth, North, Sandy and Bunnymund ran next to them. "One, two...THREE!" Hope shouted. All the Guardians, and Hope's powers united. Pitch disintegrated, leaving nothing behind. Then, the whole place lit up with light. Jack laughed and picked Hope up in his arms. "I knew you had something special!"
"Jack...I love you..."
Jack was shocked, but his cold natured heart melted inside. "I love you too Hope."
"You are my guardian now." Hope said as they embraced each other. The other guardians joined in the celebration.
When they rode the sleigh back to the North Pole, Hope had told North she found her center. He nodded. "Hope, I hereby pronounce you 'The Guardian of Peace and Friendship.'" Hope ran to Jack. Even though her parents were perished, Hope led a happy life with Jack and the Guardians. Jack taught Hope to fly with the wind, and how to make perfect snowballs. He was like a big brother to her. Jack took Hope to meet the children that helped defeat Pitch the first time, and she met Jamie, the first child to believe in Jack Frost. Hope loved her new life, and loved Jack most of all. She was now a new guardian, a new guardian of frost.
Don't worry! It's not over! There will be times when we see what happens after, so don't panic! I don't wanna leave you hanging!
