Thanks again for everyone's support! I'll be honest and admit that I did freak out when I saw I had two reviews. I know I'm lame to get so excited over only two reviews but yeah...Thanks to you guys who reviewed, and favourite, and followed! It means a lot to me.
K, I don't own ROTG or Frozen
There you go, hope you enjoy this one ;)
Chapter 3
It was time.
Pitch felt excitement tingling down his spine. His nightmares couldn't form as great an army as they did a few years back, but it doesn't matter. They'll get to feed soon, on fear, cold, pure fear…
He eyed Jack as he raised his staff in defense and pushed Elsa behind him. She looked anything but calm. Pathetic, but wonderful…for him.
"Jack, so we meet again." He said with his arms folded behind him. He circled Jack while he tried to stand between Pitch and Elsa. Elsa noticed his knuckles were turning white with his increasingly tight grip on his staff. 'This has to stop, this has to stop…' she thought while she glanced nervously at Jack and the tall, pale-faced man with no legs she could see. Was it…No, no it couldn't be….the boogeyman?
"Stand back, Pitch, if you want to continue existing," Jack said through gritted teeth, "I'm afraid I may accidentally wipe out your measly number of nightmares, and you'll be history." Sparks of ice flew towards Pitch and he dodged them. Jack covered the icy floor under Pitch with another layer of fresh snow and ice, causing Pitch to slip. He flew over and shoved his staff upon Pitch's neck, hard.
"Leave her alone."
" I find you ironic, Frost." Pitch cocked his head to the side and smiled, even though Jack's staff dug even deeper into his neck. "Thanks for your help." He gave a signal and before Jack knew it, the nightmares charged towards Elsa.
Her eyes widened and her heart was racing. She couldn't think straight. She did the most natural thing someone would do. She raised her hands in defense.
A force so strong pushed the nightmares away as they were blocked by razor-sharp icicles sticking out from the ground. That didn't stop them, though. They smelled fear, and they weren't stopping until they got it.
The palace walls were glowing red, reflecting her mood. Ice and snow shot out from her palms temporarily stopping the dark horses with red, flaming eyes. But it wasn't good enough to stop them long enough for any practical use.
Jack tried to hide it but Pitch disappearing and reappearing quickly at different parts of the palace was very confusing and distracting. He saw his shadow moving around the palace walls. The shadow tilted its head back and laughed, a cruel, fearsome sound.
In sheer panic, Elsa shot icicles from her palm and aimed them at Pitch. But he disappeared just as it left her hands and instead, pinned Jack to the wall. She gasped.
Pitch reappeared centimeters away from Elsa.
"Look what you've done." His eyes wide in a look of dismay, "You just can't stop hurting people. First it was your sister, then the innocent people of Arendelle, and now Jack," He paused a second, staring at her with his mouth half open. "whom you just met moments ago. You probably killed your parents too, who would've known that they were worrying about you and your inability to control your powers when they were killed at sea," He leaned in closer, "They probably would've lived if they had less on their minds and were more focused on getting a life boat." His look of sorrow was replaced with glee. He laughed. Elsa shuddered.
"Don't listen to him, Elsa! He's a twisted liar!"
"Am I!" Pitch reappeared next to him in a matter of seconds. "Is that true, Frost?" He smiled a cruel smile. "I think I sense fear in you." He jabbed his finger into his chest. Jack was pinned by his shoulders, one icicle missing his neck by a few millimeters.
"I'm not afraid of you."
"Nope, you aren't." Pitch said matter-of-factly, looking uninterested. "But you certainly are," He grinned. "For her." He pointed towards Elsa. The nightmares started charging towards her.
Jack tried to pull out the icicles in vain. They were thick and he needed two hands to pull them out.
Suddenly, a sleigh came charging in.
Everyone looked up in surprise.
North jumped down and charged at Pitch with his two swords. He flinched while a boomerang whizzed past his head. Pitch's eyes were full of hatred, but were then replaced by glee. "I will see you again, my dear blizzard." He glanced briefly at Elsa and disappeared into a black hole together with his nightmares.
Tooth flew over to Elsa and supported her back to the sleigh. Her hands were shaking badly. Bunny plucked out the icicles from Jack's shoulder and lead him back to the sleigh together with Sandy. For a while, they just sat there. Finally, Jack spoke.
"Pitch is after Elsa now. We must protect her." He cast a worried glance towards Elsa. He sighed and leaned back in exhaustion. Tooth stroked his hair. This simple gesture somehow made Elsa feel a pang of jealousy. She hugged her elbows and leaned against the sleigh.
"Where do you suggest we go?" said North.
An Easter egg made of golden sand formed above Sandy's head.
"Hmmm…I think Sandy's right. Pitch has been able to attack the tooth palace and Santa's workshop before, but never has he been able to get to the Warren." Tooth said after some thought. "Okay, let's go then. Buckle up!" Shouted North climbing into the sleigh.
"Ah-uh," Bunnymund stopped them before they left.
The guardians rolled their eyes. "YOUR WARREN, YOUR RULES…" they groaned. Bunny grinned, and opened up a tunnel underneath them. Before Elsa could ask where they were going, Jack held on to her wrist and pulled her down the rabbit hole.
There you go! Please read n review to let me know what you think! Good or bad, I'll take it.
Thanks a lot! ;P
