Rise of the Guardians 2

Chapter 42

Sorry it's short, this is more of a filler chapter:)

-

After nearly two hours of talking and laughing we went back to the subject on what to do next.

"I don't think we should attack them" Merida said bluntly

"What!" I said angrily "Mer, how can you say that. I know you didn't like Jack much but-"

"It's not about that" She said slightly offended "I don't think we would win a head-of attack. We're too weak, there is no more belief."

"Mer, I've gone over 600 years without belief."

"Not just us, the kids won't believe in our centers." She said impatiently. "Breeze, I know you're angry at Pitch right now but at the moment he's just too powerful. He's made the children of the world fear him and his followers. I don't think that they belief in laughter or joy as much anymore."

"Merida's right" Hiccup said "If I'm remembering correctly, Pitch has tried this before"

"Yeah" I said

"How did the Guardians beat him the last time" Hiccup asked "I'm sure Pitch tried destroying kids belief before"

"He did" I said "But he failed to wipe out every light and Jack convinced the last light to keep believing and he convinced his friends with Jack's help. The kids could turn the Nightmare back into Dreams and after that Pitch lost."

"We can't do that this time" Hiccup said

"No really" I said sarcastically. We all sat in silence for a while before Rapunzel spoke up.

"Oh, I know!" She said excitedly "We can make them believe in us"

"Punz, that's kind-of hard to do if we don't have a believer in the first place." Merida said gloomily

"No, in our centers" Punz said "We can help dispel fear by creating laughter, joy and fun. We'll be strengthening ourselves, while at the same time weakening Pitch and his followers. Divide and Conquer." She beamed at us and I could feel the beginning of a smile on my lips.

"Lets do it" I said
