You were falling to your death.
You closed your eyes waiting for the ground to approach.
You wished that you didn't have to leave Pitch like that, but you had no choice.
''Y/n!'' you heard Pitch's voice yell out.
You opened you eyes slightly to see Pitch chasing after you on a nightmare, he reached out to you; You could not see much, but you could see the desperation and fear in his eyes.
When he got close enough, he grabbed you by the arm and placed you on his lap, you laid there cold and you could not speak; You felt so weak, you passed out.
''Let'sget you home.''
You opened your eyes to find that you were back in your room.
''Ah, finally...'' you said to yourself, but then was surprised to find that you were able to talk.
You moved your hand up to feel your necklace, relieved that it was still there.
You then heard voices coming from outside the door, you could tell one was Pitch and the other voice was Jack's; They were arguing.
''Just let me see her, please!'' Jack said.
''You have done enough, '' Pitch growled back, he sounded very angry.
''How did you aid her? I need to see if she is ok, '' said Jack.
You looked down to see that you were still in your dress, but your wound was gone, ''How?'' you asked yourself.
''You just need to go, '' Pitch growled.
''It was not all my fault, you know that, Pitch.''
You got up surprisingly easy and walked to the door; You found that legs were really light and so easy to move, almost like floating; You looked down at your legs to see that your skin was paler than usual, it also had a slight grey tint to it as well.
You ran to the full-length mirror, to yourself and you eyes widened...
You skin was more pale with a tint of grey, but it was not as grey as Pitch's; Your hair was the same color, but it floating around like you were under water, And your nails were a bit longer and sharp.
Lastly, you notice your eyes, they were the same colour just so much brighter... glowing in fact.
You were in shock at your new appearance, you felt you could do nothing... but scream.
Before you finished screaming, Pitch and Jack rushed in through the door with concerned faces; You slowly turned to them with shocked eyes and saw that Jack had the same expression as you; Pitch however and a sad and regretful look on his face.
''I'm sorry... I couldn't save you, '' said Pitch.
''Wha... what you mean?'' You asked him.
Pitch walked closer to you and placed his hands on your shoulders, staring into your eyes, ''I was so scared that I was going to lose you that I was not thinking...'' Pitch's voice trailed off.
''What did you do?'' Jack asked in an angry tone.
Pitch and Jack looked cross into each other's eyes for a moment before Pitch continued, ''I pulled the shard out and tried stopping the bleeding with the black sand; It got into your bloodstream... and turned you into your current form.''
You stared from Pitch's eyes to the floor concluding at the mirror to look at yourself once more, ''So... Am I the same as you?'' you asked him.
Pitch stepped into the reflection as well, ''I am not sure, but I highly doubt that. You most likely have similar abilities, but I am sorry to say that you will have to feed off fear like me ... but maybe not as much.''
You stared into your bright eyes, wondering how to feel about this, it was all a mix of emotions.
Jack jumped at Pitch and pinned him against the wall with his staff, ''You!'' He yelled.
''Jack, stop!'' you ran over in between then, trying to get the staff off Pitch.
''This is his fault! He turned you into a monster like him!'' Jack said.
You were hurt and angry at this comment, ''Is that really what you think, Jack. I may be different, but I'm still the same girl... and I believe Pitch and myself hardly look monstrous, '' you told him.
Jack's grip loosened, ''I... I didn't mean...''
You removed Jacks staff with one hand, you definitely were a bit stronger than before, ''And besides, none of this would have happened if you two just listened to me in the first place.''
Jack withdrew his staff completely and there was a long silence.
''I...I'm sorry, Y/n. Maybe I should have acted different in all of this, '' said Jack.
''Maybe, '' you said slyly.
He put his staff on a shoulder, ''Right... Well, I think we should go back to the pole-''
''What? No!'' you said, cutting him off.
''I meant to just consult the guardians, maybe Man in the Moon know's more, '' Jack said.
''Man in the Moon?'' You said, with a confused expression.
''He chose all the guardians, and he knows so much... Maybe he can help. We were trying to contact him when you were staying there, but no luck; I think he will talk now, '' Jack explained to you.
Pitch sighed, and placed a hand on your shoulder, ''As much as I hate this... Maybe it is the best idea.''
''You do? Then are you coming with?'' you asked him.
''You honestly think they will want me there? Imagine Jack times four more, '' Pitch said.
''More like three, Tooth understands-''
''She may support you, but she hates me more than Jack does, '' Pitch explained.
You were going to disagree with him but then you remembered Tooth saying something about not liking Pitch, ''Ok... I'll go one last time, '' you said to both of them.
''I will wait for you you here, '' Pitch said, stroking your cheek with the back of his hand and giving you a loving smile.
Jack rolled his eyes, ''Ok, Let's go'' said Jack, heading out the door with you.
You looked back at Pitch with his hands behind his back, standing proudly with a sorrowful look on his face.
You could not feel the cold as you arrived at the pole on Jacks back, and you entered the room where you saw everyone else huddled in a circle with concerned looks on their faces, they didn't see you, but you could hear what they were saying.
''Jack went to fetch her, '' said Bunnymund.
''I fear the worst, '' said North
''If only I was faster, '' Tooth sobbed.
Sandman made images on his head, too fast for you to see.
''We were going to tell you that she was seeing Pitch at the ball, but you found out just a bit differently, '' said Bunnymund.
Jack looked at you and said, ''You want to say something or should I?''
You thought for a bit, ''You do it, '' you said scared.
''Don't worry, they will be shocked, but I promise everything will be alright,'' Jack said to you with a small smile.
''Thanks, '' you said before planting a kiss on Jacks's cheek.
''Look, y/n... I'm sorry about my attitude for the past few days; I can see Pitch does care for you... somehow, '' Jack said.
You looked at him strangely and placed your hand on his forehead, ''Jack... Are you sick or something?'' you asked him giggling.
''Maybe, '' he said laughing back.
Everyone heard you both and turned towards you.
''Jack, your back!'' Tooth said, flying towards you both, but stopped half-way when she recognised you, she stared at you with wide eyes and placed her hands on her open mouth.
The others caught up and stood there with just as wide eyes as they spotted you with your floating hair and your grey skin; they were shocked and speechless.
You felt uncomfortable with them staring at you like that, so you decided to look at Jack instead.
''I know this must look bad, but y/n came here to find out a bit more, '' Jack said, finally breaking the silence.
Bunnymund's eye's turned into a frown, ''What happened?'' he demanded.
You stepped forward looking down, ''Pitch tried to heal me using his powers...'' you said.
''But it did more, '' Jack finished.
''How?'' North asked.
You looked up, everyone was startled at you bright e/c eyes, ''Pitch tried mending my wound with his sand, but when the sand came into contact with my blood it transformed me. Jack and Pitch both suggested I came back here to consult with the 'Man in the moon, ''' you said to them.
''I see...'' said North stepping forward, ''Well Manny only speaks if he wants to or if it's important, so we will see.''
You all walked onto the balcony where you first met North.
''Now we wait and see, '' said North staring at the opening in the roof.
You did not question, you just did what he said. You looked around to see everyone looking at the ground, kind of ignoring you; Tooth gave you the occasional small smile; You looked at Jack to see him looking at you, giving a comforting smile, you smiled back.
''So what kind should I expect to hear from this Man in the moon, '' you asked everybody, looking around.
There was a small moment of silence before North answered, ''Oh, probably to hear if you are in any danger, or if you are a danger to others, but we should mainly expect to hear about your new abilities.''
There then came a blue glow starting to creep into the room, you all looked up to see the moon had moved into view for everyone to see.
''Hello Manny! I was starting to wonder if you would ever show your face. Do have anything to say about y/n?'' North said.
The moon shone brightly down onto the guardians emblem that was in the middle of the floor and showed started to show shadows of you and pitch in an embrace; Pitch had disappeared and you started to flying around happily in fog; You then hid in the fog to creep up on people and scaring them; Next it showed you dancing in the fog mist, seducing some lost campers, only to then scare them afterwards; You laughing and enjoying yourself, scaring people; Last shadow was of you finding a little lost girl crying in the mist, you made her laugh and played with her until her parents found her, and you hid behind a tree waving good-bye.
The moonlight disappeared.
''Looks like you will be feeding of fear like Pitch, '' said Bunnymund in a grumpy tone.
''But I'm not evil, that last image shows it, '' you said.
''It seem like you fly like Jack and disappear like Pitch...'' said Noth stroking his beard.
''Anything else?'' you asked him.
''I believe Manny may have stated you have a some sort of connection with mist and fog, '' North said to you.
You stood there in thought, ''That's cool, '' you said.
''Cool? Is this a joke you?'' Bunnymund snapped at you angrily.
''Just making light of a situation, that's all, '' you responded.
Bunny walked up to you, ''You are taking this this a little too lightly; I don't think you care about what Pitch has done to you!'' Bunnymund said to you.
You got you back up; You floated upwards, with hair whipped around furiously and your eyes glowed brighter, ''He saved me! Do you forget that? I would have been dead by now if it wasn't for him and you all treat it like a bad thing, '' you yelled.
Bunnymunds crouched with his ears down like he was scared.
You calmed yourself and you floated back down, with everything returning to the way it was.
''We don't think that at all, y/n, '' said Tooth flying over to you, to hold your hands.
''I think we are just all a bit shocked, '' said North.
You stared at North then back into Tooth's eyes, ''Maybe I should go...'' you went over to Bunnymund, ''Sorry about that Bunny.''
''Don't worry about it, '' he said, ''Just remember we are here for you if things turn sour.''
You smiled, ''Thanks.''
He smiled back, and as he did you heard a growl from behind; You turned to see a nightmare had come through the window and it kneeled on all fours.
Sandman shrugged and a ' ? ' appeared above his head.
''What do you think he wants?'' Tooth said; Everyone looked at each other.
Jack stepped in next to you, ''I think that is your ride home, y/n.''
You looked at him surprised, ''You think so?''
''Yeah... Come on,'' said Jack, starting to lead you toward's the nightmare.
When you both reached the nightmare, you hesitantly hopped on its back; After you did, It got back on its feet.
''Ill see you later then?'' you said to Jack.
''Definitely,'' said Jack smiling.
You kind of felt awkward, but you had to say good-bye to the other's, you turned to them, ''See you later!'' You yelled waving; They waved back.
The nightmare turned around and flew out the window with you on it's back, flying off into the night.
