Chapter 4
No One's Point of View
The boy ran throughout the empty streets of Burgess, trying to get away from the person that was chasing after him. When he reached the park, the person appeared right in front of him, making him fall backwards. Scooting away from the shadow, the boy felt a stick lying on the ground and picking it up to defend himself, the shadow swiped it away from his hand.
"It's time for you to come with me." The person said.
"Stay away from me." The boy replied, trying to sound brave as he looked for an escape.
"You've got no where to run, so let's make this easy by you coming with me." The person stated, making the boy know that he was right.
Suddenly a bright light appeared from behind the boy's chaser and when the person turned to see what was going on, there was a hint of frustration on his face. Then a girl stepped out of the light. It was too dark for the boy to see her face, but from the moonlight he could see that the girl had blonde hair that went to her waist, was wearing some kind of armor, and had a sword in one hand and a staff in the other.
"Step away from him Pitch." The girl sounding older than what she looked like.
"Ah Raina, how nice to see you again and alone without your fellow Guardians." Pitch said with a hint of annoyance.
"What makes you think that she's alone." A boy, with ice white hair, said stepping out from behind a tree.
Looking around, the boy noticed that there were four other people that were not there a moment ago. Looking at the person they called Pitch, the boy could see that his annoyance grew when the others came out of the shadows.
"I don't know why you want this boy, but you can tell your master this, as long as I'm a Guardian I will continue to fight the both of you and no matter how much you try, you won't win." Raina said with courage in her tone.
"You think that just because you've defeated me, you can do it again. You know who I work for and in the end he will be your's, your fellow Guardians and everyone's downfall. There's a darkness coming Raina and this time, you won't be able to stop it." Pitch said and with a laugh, he disappeared into the shadows.
Raina's Point of View
After Pitch left, I looked at the boy and saw how confused and afraid he was. Walking up to him, the boy didn't meet my eyes as if trying to make himself it was all just a dream. When I knelt down in front of him, that's when he decided to look at me, but he was still shaking from fear.
"It's alright, your safe now. What's your name?" I said, trying to comfort him, and then asked.
"Nicholas, Nick." The boy replied saying his name, but adding what I believed he preferred to be called.
"Well Nick, I know that it's hard to believe, but your in danger and you need to come with us so we can keep you safe, alright?" I stated and asked if he was ok with this, which he gave only a slight nod.
Once I helped him back onto his feet, I started leading him towards Santa's sleigh, which made him freak out.
"Wait, what's going on? Who was that? Why can't anybody, but you see me?" The boy started to ask his questions, which I knew was a result of shock.
"No time for questions mate." Bunny said, hopping onto Santa's sleigh.
"A talking rabbit, I must be going crazy." The boy replied, with a hint of fear in his voice.
"No the Easter Kangaroo is real." Jack said, making Bunny look very annoyed and Nick looked at me with a confused expression.
"We'll explain everything once we get you to safety, besides, we've got some questions of our own." I answered the boy, which seemed to put him at ease a little bit.
Helping the boy up onto the sleigh, I noticed how thin he was, which made me very concerned. After everyone was up on the sleigh, Santa made a portal to my home, where I know a lot of questions will be asked.
