VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL READERS! PLEASE READ!
I have added ANOTHER (yes, another) option in my poll for which story I should do next. If you already haven't voted, please go onto my profile and do so. If you can't vote for whatever reason, either PM me or leave your choice in the reviews! Thanks guys! Really appreciate it! :D

Look guys! :D I updated! And it's still Monday! (Well, for me it is!) I kept my promise! I am UNBELIEVABLY proud with myself! :D I worked on this all through Saturday and then on Sunday I had to do ALL of my work, so I couldn't fix it up. I wanted to get it out Sunday night/Monday morning but I ran out of time so I had to wait until AFTER school to fix it all up ;)

Funny story I've also got as well that I thought I'd share with the few people that actually like to read my A/Ns ;)
On Friday, I was catching the bus home from school. I got on early so I got a seat near the front (one of those weird side seats) and I had all of these people standing in front of me so it was kinda weird. BUT anyway, their was this one girl, and out of the absolute blue she goes: "Look! There's Jack Frost!"
My fangirl emotions: "OMG OMG OMG OMG WHERE?! TELL ME WHERE WOMAN!*bounces around crazily*"
What I really did: *casual turns around and sees not Jack Frost, but a normal grade eighter*
Then the girl goes: "See that blondish kid there, we call him Jack Frost because he looks like him."
HE LOOKED NOTHING LIKE JACK FROST. OR EVEN JACK OVERLAND. I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED! I was actually considering the possiblity of me yelling "ONLY JACK FROST CAN BE JACK FROST YOU STUPID IDIOT!" and slapping her without getting into trouble...instead I got out my iPod and listened to Alone in the World...

But, enough of me talking about how my emotions were viciously ripped from my body from disappointment, here's the chapter! :D

Disclaimer: Even if I was able to meet Jack Frost, he'd probably tell me I didn't own Rise of The Guardians...you're lucky DreamWorks...it's still yours...


Chapter 21 – Vows and Farewells
(Atheia's POV)

"Jamie! NO!" I cried to the boy in fright, but it was too late as the wave of sand collided with his palm.

I covered my mouth as a scream bubbled at the back of my throat, before having to clench my eyes shut as a bright wave of light exploded from his hand. Blinking them open, my jaw dropped in shock as I watched the last traces of black sand around us dissipate in golden streams of light.

"Woah!" Jamie exclaimed, watching as the streams of golden sand swirled in the air around us.

The Guardians, the kids of Burgess, Jack and I watched in glee as the sand streams danced in the air around us, causing not a scream, but a joyous laugh to tumbled off my lips. The kids jumped in joy, bouncing around the golden sand as it swirled around Burgess.

Suddenly, Tooth let out a cheerful cry as her wings buzzed to life, lifting her off the ground. I turned to see her zip around the houses, her girlish giggles and the buzz of her wings echoing off the houses. The kids cheered her on as she zoomed around them, causing Jack's and my smiles to widen with joy.

North gave a hearty laugh as a wave of strength seemed to overcome him. His turquoise eyes seemed to brighten vibrantly as he lifted up his twin swords with ease, swinging them around in the air with new-found potency. Monty let out a joyous cheer for the Guardian of Wonder as he let out another happy cry of relief.

"NO!" Pitch's screams of denial rippled through the streets, though hardly to anyone's notice. "Get them!"

I looked up to him as he glowered down to us, hate boiling in his golden orbs. He shrieked in anger towards the scarce amount of fearlings that hadn't dissolved, and, at Pitch's call, they reared up, before barreling towards us.

"Jack!" I cried warningly. "Herd of fearlings, twelve o'clock!"

Jack turned to me, holding out his staff as it pulsed threateningly with blue light. With the others behind us, we both charged towards the nightmares.

I whipped out my staff, the sparks crackling at the crook. As the herd came closer, I shot several balls of crackling green light, blowing the nightmares to dust that blew away with the wind. Jack, standing next to me, aimed and fired iced attacks, freezing the fearlings and causing them to plummet to the iced roads. I slashed at a nightmare trying to pass me and jabbed the end of my staff at another from my other side. At the cries of determination from the children, I turned, momentarily forgetting the fight as I gazed at the air in wonder.

Toys of all sorts flung around and glided on the air. Frisbees, model airplanes, and mini helicopters whizzed around in the air, slicing at nightmares that threatened from above. Bringing my eyes back to the streets, I watched in awe as dozens of yetis armed with bats, tennis rackets and discarded toy parts battled fearlings left and right, discarding the black sand remains as they moved onto the next target. Bunny, thankfully back to his normal size, stood in front of an army of stone eggs, slashing at the fearlings with his boomerangs while the stone eggs kicked at and squashed incoming nightmares. Elves, smug determination etched onto their expression, flung discarded wheels, stuffing, sliced bits of wood and even each other towards the nightmares, hardly doing damage but causing great distraction. And lastly the children, palms opened wide as they rushed towards the fearlings, connecting their hands with the dark, sand surface of the nightmares and dissolving them into golden streams of dreamsand.

Eyes widening in fear as I spotted a familiar yeti in trouble on the street, I zipped towards it, whipping out my staff and blasting a fearling that threatened to jump the yeti. I slashed at a couple more surrounding it with a satisfied grin, turning to give the yeti a warm smile. Leo held his hand up in the air with a proud smile, to which I collided mine against it in a high-five. He mumbled something that sounded like gratitude before I gave a cheerful salute back to him.

"I promise I'll ask North to teach me your ways of speaking after all of this!" I cried over the whines of the fearlings and the slashing of dust.

Leo only replied with a chuckle as he sliced at another close-by fearling with a broken airplane wing. I smiled happily at him, before whipping my head around to the side as something in the corner of my eye zipped out of my view. My eyes stopped and looked up to lock with the edge of the roof where Pitch was only a few moments ago. Seeing he had disappeared, I pursed my lips together, giving one last wave to the yeti before leaping up towards the roof.

Landing gracefully on the edge of the roof, I saw Pitch in the middle, surrounded by only a few nightmare horses. He gave a sharp, hardened look to me and his golden eyes locked with mine. I only gave a smug grin in return, whipping out my staff and shooting balls of green, crackling light at the nightmares. They dissolved instantly, crumbling to dust on the roof. Pitch's eyes flashed with fear for a split second as I advanced towards him, quickly joined by Jack as he hovered on the edge of the roof to my side with a smug grin.

The nightmare that Pitch rode reared up and Pitch, growling, let out a cry of rage and flung a ball of nightmare sand towards Jack, who easily blocked it. The Boogeyman then leapt over roofs, quickly followed by Jack and me. I sent a smirk towards Jack as we leapt off the rooftops after the Nightmare King, to which he replied with a thumbs up.

Zipping around a corner, Jack and I skid to a stop, breathing heavily as Pitch armed a spear of nightmare sand to us. My brain froze with fear as I hardly regarded the other fearlings; only focusing on the javelin aimed right at my heart. Just as Pitch let go of the sharpened projectile, a blur of colours zipped in front of me, the sharpened edges of the wings slicing through the sand that was heading towards me.

"Thanks Tooth!" Jack cried to the coloured figure as it flew off, shouting an audible cheer in return.

Distractions out of the way, I leapt up in the air above Pitch, hurtling down a wave of crackling energy on top of him. He ducked out of the way, arming his scythe and swinging it towards me. I rolled out of the way and jumped up to stand next to Jack's side. Abruptly in a cloud of ash and smoke, Bunny emerged from the chimney on the rooftop. I grinned at him widely as he flipped out his boomerangs that were previously slung in their sheaths.

"Ho ho ho!" Bunny smirked, flinging one of the boomerangs towards the Nightmare King, who had to duck to avoid the spinning object.

The boomerang sliced through a few of the fearlings, while Jack and I pieced through a couple more. Bunny threw his other boomerang to another herd of nightmares just as the other one came swinging back around to him. Tooth, who had dashed up to the rooftop moments ago, zipped around, slicing at fearlings with the razor-sharp edges of her wings. Bunny leapt after more nightmares just as North emerged from the chimney, swinging his swords towards the fearlings. Smirking, I sent another bolt of cracking green light to Pitch, who had attempted to escape by leaping off the room. The attack hit the nightmare he rode on, and sent him tumbling to the cold, gravel street. Bunny, Tooth, North, Jack and I leapt off the roof after him, swinging our weapons out as Pitch ducked, swerved, and dived to avoid them. Whipping around, he took a couple steps back into an alley away from us as we stood together, all our weapons pointing to him and determination hardened in our features. He took another few steps back as Jack stepped forward.

"It's over Pitch," he stated, glaring at the Boogeyman. "There's no place to hide."

Pitch only looked frightful for a mere second, before grinning eerily and giving a dark chuckle, falling back into the shadows. We all looked around guardedly as his shadows bounced off the walls. I stepped back from the walls, my staff pulsing dangerously and sparking at the end. Suddenly, everything went all too quiet. Bunny's ears twitched and perked up, before he whipped around, green eyes widening fearfully as he gestured behind me.

"Atheia! Look out!"

I spun around, my emerald orbs widening in terror as I held my staff up in front of me, blocking the huge scythe that Pitch brought down against it. The blade of the weapon narrowly missed my ear as it went over my shoulder, my staff the only thing keeping it from slicing it open. Feeling something flutter down my leg and curl around at my feet, I realised instantly that the blade of the scythe had sliced off a lock of my chocolate-brown hair. Pitch pushed the weapon closer to me, and I could feel my arms wobble from the strength I had to use to keep it away from my body.

Pitch only smirked, leaning next to my ear. "I see we're back here again, Little Atheia." I only let out a strangled groan of protest in reply as Pitch pushed the scythe down closer to me. "Do you really think the Guardians will forgive you? After everything you've done?" He went on, hissing low enough for only me to hear.

Flashes of memories appeared in front of my eyes: my hair darkening, screaming at Jack, and threatening Jamie. I shook the images from my head, bringing my emerald orbs up to fiercely lock with the golden eyes of Pitch. "That was because of you."

"They'll still never accept you," He smirked, golden eyes gleaming eerily. "I, however, will."

I let out a shriek of defiance, pushing against him with new-found strength. I knocked him back, causing him to stumble away from me as the scythe in his hand crumbled to useless sand. He looked back up at me, his eyes flashing with fear as my emerald orbs pulsed with anger and determination.

"I would rather die than join you!"

The Nightmare King glared at me, swirling another scythe together and preparing to swing at me. Tooth, Bunny, North and Jack let out cries of exclaim as the blade came closer, but before it could connect, a golden cord pulled the hand back. Pitch, wide-eyed with confusion, could barely cry out in alarm before he was pulled over the alleyway fence, disappearing from sight.

Taken aback for only a moment, I leapt over the fence after him, followed by the others. Landing in a deserted park, I could only stand still with shock and watch as the golden cord pulled Pitch along the snow-filled playground towards a cocoon of spiraling golden sand. As the light grew bright, the five of us shielded our eyes, before peeling them open as the light faded to lock with The Sandman.

My face broke out into a grin of relieved disbelief as Sandy pulled Pitch up closer to him so he was face-to-face. He waggled a finger at the Nightmare King, before rearing his fist back and punching Pitch into the air. The children, coming around the corner, grinned at the sight of the fifth guardian. Spotting them, Sandy used his dreamsand to form a top-hat above his hand, to which he tipped towards the kids in a kind gesture. Pulling down the cord that had Pitch attached on the other end with a firm tug, Sandy then sent the Nightmare King hurtling to the floor. Pitch collided with the snow-covered ground, knocking himself out and causing dreamsand butterflies to flutter around his head as he fell into unconsciousness.

Sandy turned to us, a kind and gentle smile gracing his features. Jack and the Guardians rushed up to him, gushing over him and laughing joyously at his return. North let out a merry laugh, patting the Guardian of Dreams on the back and lifting him up in the air.

"Mate, you are a sight for sore eyes," Bunny muttered in relief.

Sandy smiled, laying a reassuring hand on his friend's shoulder, causing a grin to break out on the Pooka's face. Jack and Sandy shared a grin, before Sandy floated in the air, conjuring massive amounts of dreamsand and sending them out to the houses, all while a joyful and proud smile decorated his features. The streams of golden light swirled and danced into the houses, along the roads and in the air, morphing themselves into butteries, dinosaurs, dolphins and stingrays. I watched in awe as the dinosaurs stomped onto the snowy ground, and the dolphins, butterflies and stingrays floated in the air, decorating the town in golden sand animals. I saw Cupcake blissfully dance around with a unicorn while Jamie examined a school of fish with sheer wonder as they maneuvered themselves over to him.

I could feel and see the belief grow in the air; colour bloomed onto the Guardians' faces, their movements became quicker and stronger, and their laughs because louder and full of joy. Children all over the world believed again, and it was obvious on how much the belief really made up the Guardians.

Bringing my eyes back to the others, I watched from the background with a soft smile as Jack flung a snowball to Jamie, causing him to laugh and morph his own, flinging it at his friends. The act turned it into a playful war as the yetis, elves, children and even the mini fairies attempted to fling snowballs at each other.

Feeling a tap at my calf, I looked down to see Sandy grinning up at me. My expression fell as I looked at the golden man, and I could feel a sense of dread flutter in my chest at the sight of him. Images of his 'death' flashed in my memory and I could feel guilty tears spring in my eyes as I bent down to the man.

"S-Sandy, I'm so…I'm so sorry!" I stuttered, inwardly slapping myself for how stupid I sounded.

I went to rant off again but the golden man held up a finger, forcing me to shut my mouth. He gave a warm smile, before reaching into his golden robe and pulling out something vaguely familiar. The leaf; the leaf memorial I gave to him the day he disappeared. I looked at it inquisitively for a few moments, before bringing my emerald eyes back up to him. He smiled reassuringly, using his dreamsand to create about half a dozen golden images. Even though I wasn't that experienced in understanding the way he communicated, the images stood for themselves and I could clearly understand what he was trying to say.

I forgive you.

I broke out into a smile, and, much to Sandy's surprise, wrapped my arms around him. He stiffened slightly, as if not expecting this type of reaction, before returning the hug, laying reassuring pats on my back. Tears of relief threatened to spill from my eyes as I pulled back, but Sandy only patted my shoulder and smiled warmly, before floating over to where North was.

I beamed as he went, feeling, for once, fully relaxed as I watched the children, yetis, elves, mini-fairies and even the Guardians as they pelted one another with snowballs, their laugher echoing for miles. A cold substance then hit me at the back of the head, and I turned around to jokingly glare at the culprit. Jack smirked, inclining his head towards me, before making his way over.

"Here!" He said, chucking me a small object. I reached out, catching the item in my hand and bringing it down to look at it.

I opened my palm, recognizing the small, wooden doll in my hand as a little Matryoshka doll, similar to North's; his centre. The doll wore similar clothing to me; a green tank-top, denim shorts and a black cloak. It even held a mini version of my staff in its tiny hands. As I turned it around in my hand, I noticed that on either side of the doll, there was a different expression. On one side, the Atheia representation harboured a stubborn expression, with the little staff producing the crackling green sparks at the crook. I turned it over to look at the other side, where Atheia's grin bordered on happiness and wonder as the mini staff in her hand produced a vast array of fluttering flower petals. I gave a small chuckle under my breath, looking up to Jack and grinning. He gave a smirk in reply, before his crystal eyes suddenly brightened, as if remembering something.

"I have something else to give you," he said, reaching into his hoodie pocket and pulling something out.

I tilted my head in curiosity as Jack grasped both of my hands, placing the object in them and closing my fingers around it. I pulled away, looking at the object in astonishment. It was the egg I had painted in the Warren. A light aqua colour covered the shell fully, covered over with smudged, blue, jagged lines, spiraling from a spot in the middle of the egg. My emerald eyes widened and I jerked back as voices replayed in my mind from long ago.

"It's okay! It's okay. Don't look down, just look at me."
"Jack…I'm scared…"
"I know, I know, b-but you're gonna be alright; you're not gonna fall in…"

My eyes stung with the thought of the painful memories as I brought my orbs to look at Jack. He was so different from back then. Gone were the open vests and cloaks, the messy brown hair and hazel eyes, replaced with icy blue orbs, snow-white hair and a cerulean, frosted hoodie. The only thing holding him to the past were his colonial pants, now tattered and stretched at the hems.

Jack seemed to be almost in tears as he breathed with a sigh of relieved longing; "Hey little lady."

Smiling, I threw my arms around him, burying my face into the crook of his neck as I let the tears flow, trailing down the frosted patterns on his hoodie. Jack wrapped his arms around me, holding me close as I heard his uneven breaths in my ear.

"I missed you so much," I murmured, letting out a sigh of relief and entirety, tightening my grip on him as if he would disappear on me again. "I thought I'd never see you again."

"You always came to the pond for me," He said, pulling away and looking into my eyes with a sense of pride as he grasped my shoulders. "You always talked to me. You made me feel like I wasn't alone. Of course, I didn't know who you were back then, but-"

I let out a chuckle, wiping away the unfallen tears from my eyes. "I always knew you were there." I said, smiling up to him.

He let out a sigh. "All this time-"

"Youdare have fun in my presents?!" Jack and I rapidly turned to Pitch, who was struggling to pull himself off the snow covered floor, anger pulsing in his golden eyes. The other Guardians also stopped their fun and games, turning in shock towards the Boogeyman. "I am the Boogeyman!" He shrieked, turning to Jamie. "You will fear me!" Pitch, though, abruptly stopped his rant as the young brunette ran through Pitch, emitting him in a blue light and causing him to take a couple steps back in shock. "No! No…" He cried, turning around and finally noticing us.

His eyes widened in fear at the sight of the six of us. His breath came out jagged as he whipped around and ran towards the woods. Jack and I smiled, knowing exactly where he'd end up. We led North, Tooth, Bunny and Sandy through a hidden pathway in the trees, to where the frozen lake gleamed solidly. Pitch emerged from the other side of the woods, looking behind himself and not noticing North until he rammed into him. He fell back onto the ice, scrambling to get away from The Guardian of Wonder as he advanced closer to him.

"Leaving ze party so soon?" North asked, smirking towards the helpless King of Nightmares.

"You didn't even say goodbye," Tooth added, fluttering up from behind North, flipping a quarter expertly between her fingers.

She flicked the coin towards Pitch, much to his disgust. "A quarter?"

Pitch only looked up in time for Tooth to cry out in anger and punch his jaw, causing a tooth to fall out and skid along the ice. Pitch squeaked out in surprise and mild pain, feeling around in his mouth for the now-missing tooth as he looked up to The Tooth Fairy in shock-horror.

"And that's for my fairies." She said, dusting her palms off as a couple of the said-fairies chirped and squeaked angrily at the Boogeyman.

"You can't rid of me! Not forever!" Pitch stated, pulling himself off the ice. "There willalways be fear."

"So v'at?" North replied, shrugging off Pitch's comment. "As long asone child believes, we will be here to fight fear."

"Really?" Pitch smirked, gesturing with his hand a herd of nightmares that appeared from behind the trees, pawing at the ground with their hooves and snorting impatiently. "Then what are they doing here?"

North only laughed in reply, causing a look of confusion to overtake the smirk Pitch once had. "They can't be my nightmares," North replied. "I'm not afraid."

The look of confusion on Pitch's features changed abruptly to terror as I spoke; "Looks like it's your fear they smell." I said, smirking towards him.

"No!" He cried, eyes widening in disbelief and horror as the fearlings charged towards him.

He flung himself away, but was to slow for the nightmares as they overcame him, swirling in a black, sand mass around him. The six of us watched in awe as Pitch's cries and screams were muffled by the sand that dragged him to a familiar, deep hole under a discarded bed structure. The nightmares pulled him down while Pitch scratched at the ground, burying dirt and snow under his fingernails. After one last futile attempt of escaping, Pitch let out a final cry as he was pulled down into the hole, the nightmares sucking the bed structure and surrounding dirt down with him. Once the dust settled, all that remained was a filled hole, nothing more, nothing less. Pitch was gone.

Tooth let out a bubbly, joyous laugh, zipping around Jack and me in delight. Baby Tooth chirped happily buzzing around my head before making her way over to Jack to gush about him. We both let amused chuckles as the mini fairy tangled herself in his hair, before zipping around his finger a couple of times and flying off to Tooth.

"Are you both ready now?" Jack and I turned to North, who stood with the other three Guardians. He gave a wide smile to us. "To make it official?"

I turned to Jack, both of us grinning. I twisted back to lock eyes with North, who seemed to take my sparkling eyes as a positive response. I straightened up, holding my staff to my side as one of the yetis I didn't recognise passed the familiar, golden book to North.

"It is time you take oath," The Guardian of Wonder said, opening the book to a page near the middle.

I didn't even notice as yetis, elves, egg statues and the children of Burgess emerged from the forest, standing behind us in a large crowd. I took a deep breath, my smile growing as North turned the pages. North cleared his throat, his turquoise eyes scanning the golden pages of the book before bringing them up to us.

"Will you, Jack Frost and Atheia, vow to watch over the children of the world? To guard them with your life; their hopes, their wishes and their dreams for they are all we have, all that we are, and all that we'll ever be?"

I looked to Bunny; he had seemed so closed-up and incompatible the first time we had met. Now, he stood, smiling proudly at us as Jack and I stood side by side. Tooth fluttered gleefully, a wide smile on her face. At first, she had seemed half-crazy with her obsession over teeth, but now I realised she loved teeth because it was what she did. She loved her job, and to love something like that was heart-warming. Tooth, to me, felt like a role model, like the big sister I never had. Sandy floated off to the side, a warm smile gracing his features. Sandy was the only one I was comfortable with, he had seemed to understand my situation at the time and was the only one being really supportive. Now, standing here, I could see the proud smile he gave me. Lastly, I looked to North, whose turquoise eyes burned with a strong purpose and a kind heart underneath. Meeting him for the first time was terrifying, but now, standing here, it was as if I had my father back; the strong, proud father that was always my best friend.

"I will," Jack and I voiced out at the same time.

"Then congratulations, for you are now, and forever more," North said, handing the book back to the yeti. "Guardians."

Erupted cheers exploded from behind me, and I broke out into a grin. I turned around to the children of Burgess, who let out joyous cheers. I bent down to them, crushing them all in a hug as they laughed and hugged me back. They all pulled back at the sound of something in the air, and I looked up to see the sleigh, complete with the reindeer, zoom through the air and skid along the ice, causing gasps of awe from the children.

"Everyone loves the sleigh," I said under my breath, grinning as the wide-eyed children gazed at the vehicle in awe.

"Time to go," I heard North whisper in my ear.

I smiled, making my way over to the sleigh before a young, familiar voice stopped me in my tracks. "You're leaving?"

I turned back to Jamie, who looked at me worriedly. He had abandoned the other children, who were in the background muttering tiredly about the time. I gave a small smile to the boy, but nodded dejectedly.

"But what if Pitch comes back?" Jamie cried in worry. "What if we stop believing? If I can't see you…"

I gave a small chuckle to the boy, bending down to his level. "Hey, hey calm down, calm down." I murmured, ruffling the boy's already messy hair. "You tell me you stop believing in the moon when the sun comes up?" I asked, tilting my head to the side with a smile.

"No," Jamie chuckled at the silly question.

"Well, do you stop believing in the sun when clouds block it out?" Jamie looked over my shoulder at Jack, who had overheard the conversation and had made his way over. I smiled at him as he bent down to Jamie and laid a hand on his shoulder. "We'll always be there, Jamie, and now," He said, pointing to the young brunette's chest. "We'll always be here."

"Which kinda makes you a Guardian too," I added, smirking towards the boy as he gave a smile in return.

Jack and I stood up, both of us giving a warm and reassuring smile to the brunette boy, before turning around and making our way towards the sleigh.

"Wait!"

I turned around, my eyes widening in shock as the boy collided with both of us, wrapping an arm around each of our legs. I breathed heavily, instantly realizing Jamie hadn't gone through me. I looked down to the boy, not used to how Jamie was not glowing blue or slipping through me. I turned to Jack wide-eyed, noticing his expression was similar to mine. He broke out into a grin, before bending down to the boy and wrapping an arm around him. I blinked a couple times, before smiling contently and crouching to Jamie, wrapping one of my own arms around him. Jamie looked up, giving both me and Jack a smile as we straightened up. As Jack headed off to the sleigh, I placed a kiss on the top of the young brunette boy, ruffling his hair, before I made way to the sleigh.

North cracked the reins as I hopped onto the wing of the sleigh next to Jack, causing the vehicle to launch into the air. The uproar of cheers from the children caused a smile to etch across my features, and Jack and I waved down to them as the sleigh was pulled along in the air. The last thing I saw was Jamie's smile as the reindeer tugged the sleigh up and over the clouds, leaving the town and the children of Burgess far off behind.
