Violetta and I tidy ourselves up, while Oh and Pig play around in the other room. She sits on the bed with me. I plug my charger into the socket and charge my phone. Violetta smiles at me. "I liked the other day."

"Which day?" I ask. 'The day where we nearly kissed but you had to go?' I think.

"The day when we were alone in the park and we..." she trails off, as if remembering the moment. Then, she sighs, looking away. "It's stupid, I know." I take her hand in mine.

"No it isn't."

She looks back at me and smiles. I smile back.

"Remember last year? The prom."

"We went together," I say.

The night when I wore a red dress and she wore a black one. When we seemed to melt into each other. We had our first slow dance on a yacht. We laughed, chatted, sang when Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez or Rihanna's music came on. The night we nearly kissed, just like three days ago, but I had to go. A loss. A meaningful relationship was lost right then.

And it's slipped away from us right now, because Oh runs in.

"Emily's here."

I look up and watch as Emily walks in. "Pitch isn't resting. He's on your trail."

I look at Violetta, who nods.

We're riding horses made out of trees and leaves, with bug armour. Emily Jane rides behind us, watching out for any sight of Pitch. Violetta seems to be a pro at this. Me, not so much. I'm trying to control my horse, but it just won't cooperate. Oh makes a gesture with his hands and suddenly, the horse starts obeying me. I frown, looking at him. "How'd you do that?"

He taps his nose happily. "It's a secret."

I roll my eyes and smile. Oh is so funny sometimes.

Violetta skids to a halt and we follow her actions. My eyes widen. Mom's on the ground, eyes open. I'm about to get off my horse when Mom turns to shadows. I hear Pitch.

"Come get her Tip," he laughs. "I'm sure she's just DYING to see you."

"No! You can't kill her!" I cry.

"PITCH!" Emily shouts. "If you don't release Lucy I'm going to-"

"I'll spare you!" His voice is suddenly frantic.

"Oh please. It's not like I'm your daughter."

Silence.

Violetta frowns. "What did you mean by that?"

"I say that, he goes away. He gets upset or something like that. Now come on." She makes a portal.

"Where are we going?" I ask. "Where the Boov currently reside. They'll help us."

We ride through, and land. Captain Schmek looks up at us, shocked.

"I know this is sudden, but it's urgent," Emily says. He sighs. "Alright. Come with me."

We get off our horses and we're led into a large metallic room. "So," he says with a smile. "What do you need?"

Oh steps forward. "They need some of our technology, Captain. There's someone called Pitch-"

"The Bogeyman?" Schmek asks. Violetta nods. Schmek goes to a safe and presses his hand onto it. It scans his hand, then the door swings open. He picks up an object. A locket. He gives it to Oh. "Keep it safe. It's the only thing that weakens him."

I nod. "Thank you."

"Anything," he smiles. "By the way, Tip, Oh. It's good to see you two. And your friends as well. So. Use it when he is at his most powerful."

Violetta nods. We turn away, say our goodbyes, then mount our horses and ride back into the forest.
