Um...Hey guys, * runs out of room in fear of being hunt down*

You can read my excuse at the end of the chapter.

North's POV

Just before Jack and Rosalie crashed into each other, I bellowed out, "STOP!"

Both of them skidded to a stop when they heard the angry tone in my voice. I heard Jack mutter to Rosalie, "This isn't over, Autumn."

"You bet it isn't, Frost," shereplied back.

I ignored them.

"Now, as I was going to say earlier, YOU TWO ARE NOW GUARDIAN!"

I chuckled when I saw the shocked expression in each of their faces.

Rosalie's POV

"Now, as I was going to say earlier, YOU TWO ARE NOW GUARDIAN!" yelled North gleefully.

"Wait, what?!" I exclaimed.

But then the yetis lighted ceremonial torches with a *WHOOSH*. Elves leaped up from the back of the workshop columns, unfurling homemade banners as they descended. Jack and I both brushed off a few baby teeth who tried to present us with necklaces of paper with our symbols on it.

Then a pair of yetis came close to Jack wielding torches, and they spun it around with ease.

"Good luck with that, Frost,"I said, stepping back as Jack paled, if that was even possible.

Jack's shrieks were drowned out by the sounds of horns and drums.

"This is the best part!" said North. He looked as if he were having fun.

An elf marching band came into the room and onto the sides, North marching along with them in the middle.

NO ONE'S POV

Jack looked down to find an elf pointing at his bare feet. The elf then directed his attention to two approaching elves, carrying a pair of blue boots with a silver bell tied on the tip, where they curled up. Jack's confusion escalated.

Rosalie started laughing-that is until they represented her with a pair of shoes similar to Jack's, except in red and in her size.

Meanwhile, a Yeti handed North an old large book. North blowed off the dust, opened it, and begins by clearing his throat.

Jack clenched his jaw in annoyance as he scaned the room, while Rosalie looked as ifshe weregoing to erupt into flames. (She already had her hand accidentally lit on fire, but didn't even notice.)

Jack suddenly SLAMMED his staff down, sending a blast of frost and wind across the room, while Rosalie sent a burst of flame and wind from her hand. Frost and fire going together for the first time, neither one of the elements melting or going out. The frost was tinted with a reddish colour, and if you looked closer, you could see a thin strip of fire running along it. The torches went out and everything stopped.

"What makes you think I want to be a Guardian?" Jack and Rosalie both asked in unison.

Tooth and Sandy both looked disappointed, while Bunny looked relieved.

North burst out in laughter, holding the old book in his hands, then stopped and looked to them, stone faced.

"Of course you do!"

Then North said to the elves, "Music!"

The elves blared the trumpets again.

"No music!" Rosalie shouted.

The music peters went out again. An elf threw his trumpet to the ground and stormed off while pushing another elf. North looked annoyed.

"Look, this is all very flattering, but, ah... you don't want me. You're all hard work and deadlines, and I'm snowballs and fun times,"Jack said. "I'm not a Guardian. But Rosalie fits the description for it."

"Wait, what?! Who said I wanted to be a guardian? I'm already busy with kids being woken up from nightmares. And I don't even have to guess who's causing all that!" Rosalie said.

"Jack, Rosalie... I don't think you understand what it is we do." Tooth swooped in and turned everyone's attention to the massive globe behind them. "Each of those lights is a child."

Jack and Rosalie looked up at the Globe, taking in the enormity of this.

"A child who believes. And good or bad... naughty or nice... we protect them,"North said softly.

Then suddenly, North signed and said, "Tooth... fingers out of mouth."

We cut back to discover that Tooth is examining Jack's teeth.

TOOTH

(removes fingers)

"Oh, sorry. They're beautiful."

Jack moved away from the Globe and walked back toward the center of the room.

NORTH

"Okay, no more wishy-washy! Pitch is out there doing who-knows-what!"

JACK

(scoffs)

"You mean the Boogeyman?"

NORTH

"Yes! When Pitch threatens us, he threatens them as well."

(gestures the Globe behind him)

I'm so sorry for not updating for over a week!

I been busy with summer school and my mom dragging me off to the swimming pool everyday. Also with the limited computer time since its summer and my parents don't want me to spend the whole day on my laptop.

So it looks like I'm going to be updating once every 1-2 weeks now.

Don't worry, I won' abandon this story.

Sorry with the shorter than normal chapter I put up today.

I'll try my best to make the next chapter more interesting and longer!

COME ON GUYS, 110 VIEWS AND NO ONE REVIEWS ON CHAPTER 2?

*Goes off to cry in a corner?*

Anyway, thanks to my beta reader Bookworm1756 for editing my chapter so fast!
