* Van Tassel Mansion*
"Constable Crane congratulations on defeating the Horseman"Christan Van
Micheals
"Thank you sir, but I really couldn't have done it without Katrina and Young
Mr. Masbeth" Icabod pointed out
*Meanwhile in the Tree of the Dead*
"So Horseman what do you plan on doing to me" Lady Van Tassel asked
"I do not know"horseman said dryly
Lady Van Tassel looks at the Horseman who seems to be distracted at the
moment.
" You're thinking about Crane aren't you?"Lady Van Tassel asked smugly
"yes, I have to know who he really is because Daredevil doesn't allow anyone
but myself and two other to ride him" the horseman said ferociously
"Who are the other two Horseman" Lady Van Tassel asked slyly"
"My son and wife, they are the only two other people besides daredevil that I
even remotely cared about" the Horseman said with almost a hint of remorse
in his voice. The Horseman than walked over to another section of the tree.
The ghost of icabod's mother appears before the Hoseman.
"Oh Christian, my horseman, my love,do not see the answer to your question
is right before your eyes,Counstable Icabod Crane is your son now fully
grown"with that she disapeared
"So the pale Icabod is my own flesh and blood, my son."the horseman said
Van Tassel Mansion
"Ah Crane,it appears I underestimated you and congratulations are in order.
Well congradulations"Baltus van Tassel said
"Thank You sir"Icabod said then Katrina walks in the room and hugs her
father
"Excuse me father but may I speak to Icabod alone please?"Katrina asked
"Of coarse my dear I have things to attend to anyway, goodnight"Batus said
and left the room
Icabod looks over at Katrina .
"You wished to speak with me Katrina?"Icabod asked coldly
"Yes, I do. Why are you acting so cold Icabod? You've been acting like this
since we first discovered the tree of the
dead." Katrina said with a worried tone.
"It's nothing , just memories resurfacing that's all,I going for a walk good
night Katrina" Icabod said as he
left the House
In the woods
"Why am I being like this,what's wrong with me?"Icabod asked himself
The sound of heavy Hooves steps could be heard from behind him. When
Icabod turned around the Horseman was
there looking at down at Icabod from on top of his stallion, Daredevil.
"Horseman!" Icabod exclaimed
"So you are the man who returned me my head to me"Horseman
"Yes I am and I would like to know why aren't you in hell where you
belong?"Icabod asked
"Because there are so many more more people to kill,Icabod Crane"the
horseman states smugly
"Go away Horseman leave the citizens of Sleepy Hollow or else!"Icabod
demanded
"Or else what " Icabod asked sarcastically. The horseman looked at Icabod
and smiled with his demonic eyes
gleaming and his sharp teeth showing. The Horseman looked at him and
drew his sword and pierced through
Icabod's stomach and then pulled it out.
"Oh my god that hurt!"Icabod said as he collapsed on the ground. Then the
horseman dismounted from Daredevil
picks up Icabod and mounts Daredevil and he, daredevil and Icabod headed
to the tree of the dead.
Inside the tree of Dead
"Oh my…Where am I?"Icabod asked
"You are in the Tree of the Dead,boy" the Horseman said
"Let me leave this evil place at once Horseman!"Icabod demanded
"No you can't pale child," the Horseman said
" I'm no child sir I am 24…" Icabod stated but his mind stated to wander
because the pain and the cold blood started
coming from the wound the horseman gave him. Icabod then 'passed' out.
Dream flashblack
"Icabod come say goodbyr to your father"icabod's mom said with a
smile.Icabod as a child runs towards a
tall, pale
man clad inblack about to mount a large black stallion.
'
Da,Da I'll miss you when your gone"young icabos says sadely
"I will miss you too pale child"the man in black said as he ruffed Icabod's hair.
Icabod looks up at the man smiles and says"Da,when i grow up I'm going to be just like you"the yound
Icabod stated
happily.
The tall man man mounts his large black stallion and looks down at Icabod.The man smiles at him,his teeth
as shrp
as knives and his eyes blue and as bright as a violent storm.
dream ends and Icabod begins to wake up.
Icabod then began to wake up slowly and cautiusly opening his eyes because
he began to remember where
he was. Icabod
lad still trying to figure out his dream.
Icabod's thoughts to himself- The horseman couldnt be my father,could he?
I do seem to remember him
though and
a bit about his uummm 'occupation' and do remember that armor I do seem
to remember a man that looked
exactly like the horseman and i vegly recall calling him Da I guess it is true .I
guess I have to except the fact
that
the horseman is my father.
Icabod woke up all the way and and sat up and was facing Lady Van Tassel
who was chained to the wall of
the tree of the dead.
"So Crane it looks like we're stuck in hell together"lady van Tassel said evily
"You are dead I for one am not
"Your dead I for one Lady Van Tassel am not"Icabod stated
"Ha! you are so naive Crane, do you really think you would live that
long with a wound like that
wouldn't kill you then you are dead wrong" Lady Van Tassel says in here
matter of fact tone
Icabod then looked at his blood soaked stomach
Lady Van Tassel then gets up and looked at Icabod
"Though of coarse he made sure that you died in the tree of the dead so
you can come back to life
, but on thing stumps me is how you manged to survive in the tree as
long as you had only some one with
magic tainted im there blood could have done it"Lady Van Tassel said
Icabod looked up at Lady Van Tassel and wanted to get up at destroy
her but he desided to her.
"My mother was a witch but she good and was a child of nature not a
black witch like you" Icabod said
"And your father who might he be?"Lady Van Tassel asked smuggly
"Who my father is is none of your you black witch!" Icabod snapped
Lady Van Tassel backed away from Icabod she could see Icabod's
eyes
darken to a demonic black and he was giving her the same evil look the
Horseman gave her many times before
The Horseman then enters the room of the tree that contained
icabod and Lady Van Tassel.
"Black witch if you must know who Icabod's father is it's me" the
Horseman said
"So that's why you brought Icabod here I should have known."
Lady Van Tassel said smuggly(is that a word)
The Horseman walks to Icabod with a pile of black garments and
black boots in
his hands.
"Put these on pale child"The horseman demanded as he handed
Icabod the clothes.
Icabod was about to object to the Horseman's demands but
something in him told him not to. So he nodded , and took the clothes
from the Horseman,his father, and then got dressed in the black
clothes and black knee high boots.
After Icabod was done getting dressed he went to the room that
now contained the Horseman.
The Horseman then looked up at Icabod and nodded his head in
approval.
"It's time you take up a more suitable occupation for one
of your bloodline,Pale child."the Horseman
"I will not harm anyone, for you or anyone else"Icabod
stated
"Yes you will, I know you want to, you can probably feel the
lust for carniage building inside you as we speak." the Horseman said
with a smile.But Icabod doesn't answer he just looks down at his feet.
*Van Tassel Mansion 2 weeks later*
"Oh Father where could Icabod be it has already been two weeks, I
believe he is still in Sleep Hollow because his things are still here"Katrina
said
as she cried on her father's shoulder. "Don't worry my daughter I'm sure
Counstable Crane is just fine" Baltus Van Tassel said as he looked down at
his daughter who had tears of worry filling in her eyes.
"But if you like will form a larger search party and won't stop till
Icabod is found." Baltus said as he hugged his daughter
"Thank you father" Katrina said happily
*Outside*
" Icabod! Icabod where are you Icabod"Katrina cried out
"Katrina I think you should come in now it's getting late,let the men continue
the search and we'll tell you if we find him" Baltus said
"Alright father I will go in and rest for awhile" Katrina said as she
walked into the house.
*Inside the tree of the dead*
" I will not help you murder the citizens of Sleepy Hollow, what have
they ever done to you?' Icacabod asked demandingly(i'm not sure if it's a
word)
"Murdered me! For doing my job and they must pay !"The Horseman
exclaimes angrily(not sure if it's a word sorry ^_^)
"I never thought about it like that"Icabod whispered
"You know that your mother would have never been killed if they
hadn't killed me, and she would never have been forced to marry that ,as you
put it that 'Bible Tyrant' " The Horseman stated in an angry as a matter of
fact tone.
Icabod looked at the Horseman.
The Horseman then looked diectly into Icabod's eyes and noted
they were now a demonic black like they were before when Lady Van Tassel
angered him.
"Now it's time for revenge,come my son"The Horseman said and
Icabod nodded and followed the Horseman. Then they both mounted
daredevil and headed towards the Van Tassel Mansion.
*One day later at Van Tassel Mansion*
Baltus Van Tassel, Christan Van Micheals,Rena Van Gavious, Joshua
Van Matthews, and Katrina Van Tassel gather in Vna Tassel Mansion to
discuss the on going search for Icabod.
"What do you believe happened to counstable Crane,Baltus" Rena
Asked
"He probably snuck back to New York and hiding under his bed"
Joshua said sarcastically
"Icabod not do do that he is the bravist man I ever met ,I didn't see
you out there facing the Horseman!" Katrina exlaimed angryily
Baltus walked over to his daughter and and embraced her tightly to try
and comfort her. Suddenly a pair of foot steps could be heard form behind
them. They turn around to see who was there. It was the Horseman.
The group didn't waste much time and began to run toward the library.(So
typically stupid of them to run somewhere they have no chance of escaping
from.)
"I thought he was gone for good, how did he return"Rena said as she
was panting for breath as they were running toward the library.
"I don't know but lets get in the library and bolt the ...door" Baltus
panted.
*In the library*
"Quick bolt the door" Joshua yelled
All the sudden they heard a voice coming from the darkness of the library.
"Oh yes do bolt the door we all know the Horseman won't be
able to get in now"the voice said sarcastically.
"Who are you and what are you doing in my home"Baltus asked with
fear in his voice.
"Why Mr. Van Tassel I am a welcomed guest of yours"the figure in
says and stands up from the couch lights a candle and turns around and
everyone sees who the voice belongs to.
"Oh my god Icabod!" Katrina exclaimed as she runs over to
" Hello Katrina my love." Icabod said as he pulled her close to him and gave
her deep passionate kiss.
"Icabod where have you been?"Baltus asked
But Icabod didn't answer,He just kissed Katrina again only more passionately
then before.
"Icabod your skin is so cold,what happened?"Katrina asked
There was no answer.
"Yes, Mr Crane you look paler than usual" christan van micheals said
with a hint of concern in his voice.
"Yes crane what happaned too you?"Joshua Van Matthews asked as
he moved closer to Icabod.
Icabod ignores him and talks to Katrina
"Katrina I afraid you must leave now I don't want anyhing to happen to
you me love"Icabod demaned softly
"No Icabod I want to stay"Katrina said
Icabod loses his temper
"KATRINA YOU WILL LEAVE NOW OR ELSE I WILL NOT BE
RESPONSABLE FOR MY ACTIONS AND don't worry about the
Horseman he won't harm you."Icabod said
"But Icabod..."Katrina stuttered
"GO NOW!"Icabod Demanded and his eyes once more became a demonic
black.
Katrina looked at him was horrified, she was ton speak but was
interrupted by the Horseman breaking down the door and then entering the
room.The Horseman had his ax in his left hand and his unshethed sword in
his right. He then tosses the sword to Icabod who catches it with out a
problem.Icabod then looks at the sword and says
"Well Mr.Van Matthews you see my problem is you" Icabod
states as he plunges the sword in Joshua's stomach and then pulls it out as
Icabod pulls the sword out blood flies everywhere including the Katrina.
Katrina looks at Icabod with horror after witnessing the events that just took
place. Katrina looks at Icabod again and runs out of the library and then out
of the Mansion and to her surprise she was not stopped by Icabod or the
Horseman.
"Counstable Crane why are you in league with the Horseman?"Baltus
asked with fear in his voice.
"Yes Crane explain yourself"Christan Van Micheals said while in a
protecting embrace with Rena Van Gavious.
Icabod gave them a cold evil grin and replyed
"Well you see the Horseman is my father and well we want revenge for
all the wrongs down to us"
"What wrongs have we of Sleepy Hollow done?" Van Micheals
asked
"Only your direct familes the Van Tassels',van Gavious', Van
Matthews,and the Van Micheals'."Replyed the Horseman
"Why what have we done?" Christan asked
"You destroyed me for doing my job and because I was not there to protect
my wife she was forced to marry a hypicritical bible tyrant and was later
killed by that same man and is the one who made my son afraid to be who he
really is."The Horseman stated angrily
At that moment the Horseman and his son lunged toward the small group of
people. Within the hour they were all dead and the Horseman had four new
heads to add to his collection.
After they were done in the mansion they left and went back to the tree
of the Dead .
And to this day they still haunt the western woods looking for a few
more heads to add to there collection.
WHAT YOUR HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
The End?????????
