A/N Hey guys. Sorry that's been so long. I've been super busy with doctors and crap. :P I hate doctors. Anyway, here is the tenth chapter...wow. I think this is the longest thing I've ever written...oh well. Enjoy you guys!


~Jack's POV~

I can't believe I actually got sick. I have been around for nearly three hundred years and nothing has made me want to hurl, but I couldn't control myself. I sigh out of aggravation again. Bunny, North, Tooth, Sandy, Rose's dad, and myself have been standing around trying to figure out a plan to try and get Rose back. It makes my blood boil. We should be out there doing it, not in here trying to figure out what to do for the past TWO hours. Who knows what Pitch could being doing to Rose right now. My Rose!

"Tell me again why we are sitting here talking about this when Pitch could be torturing Rose right now?" I ask and I do nothing to try and hide the aggravation in my voice.

"Jack, we all want to get Rose back, but we just can't charge in there. We don't know how much power Pitch has regained and we will only have one shot at this." Tooth says from across the room. I sigh again but I don't do it out of aggravation this time. I know that my temper is getting out of control, but I can't help it. Not when I think about what happened to Rose today.

"Back to plan. If this going to work we need to know our roles inside-out. Ya?" North says from across the room. Tooth hovers back over to her spot in the circle and I give a huff before I stride back to where I was standing.


~Rose's POV~

I sit curled up on the small bed in this closed of room. I don't know how long it's been but I haven't seen or heard anything from him since he last told me to change into that dress. I ignore him still but I wonder if he will ever come back. I could care less except for the fact that I feel sick. My stomach has been twisting and turning ever since I woke up. It's strange because it doesn't feel like the stomach flew, which I've had many times before. My mind won't grasp what is happening to my body, however, and it aggravates me.

"Why do you keep me locked up in here!?" I shout angrily at the sealing. I lean my head against the cold, black wall and it reminds me of Jack's cold fingers. I miss him and I wish he were here. At the thought of Jack my stomach flutters so much that I get dizzy.

"Ugh..." I groan. This doesn't feel good. Just then a voice sounded through out the whole room.

"If you want out, your going to have to wield the darkness to your will." I hear in my ear. I look up, but nobody is in the room. I was about to shout out to the owner of the voice, telling him to show himself, but he spoke again before I could. "Your hungry, right? If you want to eat your going to have to force your way out of the room. Do it or starve in that room." The voice ended with a sharp chuckle. This gets me angry, mostly because I know who's voice it is.

Even though I'm angry at that voice for everything right now, I don't want to die here either. So I do the only thing that I can and that is to try and wield the darkness. I close my eyes and concentrate on shadows around me. 'Move. Move. Move.' is what is repeating inside my head as I imagine myself being transported out side of this room. I could really care less where I end up at the moment, as long as I get out of this room.

When I open up my eyes, I sit in pure shock. I'm not in the room any more, but rather in a huge library. It's still dark, grey, and filled with hundreds of shadows that seem to jump out at me, but it's defiantly not the room that I started out in. There are many shelves and hundreds of books. A part of me wants to thumb through the many books, but my mind snaps back to attention very quickly. I have more important things to worry about rather than books.

"H-how did I?" I ask to who I thought was nobody, but then I heard that same dark voice in my ear.

"Good. You have proved that you can manage small tasks, but I wonder what else you can do." I hear as I whip around to see Pitch standing in the shadows. I look into his yellow eyes that seem to be laughing at me.

"Why are you doing this to me?" I ask him and he laughs. The sound makes me cringe inside, though I try to keep my wits about me on the outside.

"I want you to lose control over your dark side. I want to see it take over you and devour you inside and out." Pitch says and his voice echoes around the room. He smiles at me and my stomach turns in the most awful way.

"I will never surrender to you or my dark side. Ever." I say and put emphasis on certain words, even though my stomach is threatening to get very upset. His face went from being slightly bearable to extremely unbearable as it twisted in what I can only assume is anger. He walks towards me and I have to fight back the urge to back away.

He waves his hand and shadows jump from the edges of the room. They wrap around my wrists so that I can't move, and I'm left at what ever mercy Pitch decides to give me. He reaches out to wrap his long fingers around my neck and squeezes. I squeezes my eyes shut as I feel his grip tightening.

"I could kill you right now. You know that don't you?" He says, his voice is cold and dead. I panic inside my head and try to think of someway that I could get away, but there seems to be no way. 'Help me! Anybody!' I scream inside my head with my eyes still shut tightly. A sudden feeling of being ice cold takes me and then I hear Pitch's voice again.

"W-what are you doing!? Stop it right now!" He screams and releases my neck. I open my eyes as I began to gasp for air as I'm able to breathe again. I look around me as the shadows release my wrists. I see the faint dust of frost on the floor and covering some of my clothes. Only one name runs through my mind.

"Jack.." I whisper before I fall to the ground and my vision begins to fade to black. I remember hearing faint screaming and then the darkness took hold of me.
