Sorry I haven't updated in so long, I was reading les mis. I think my life's in a les mis phase other then I have an english project. So I considered the reviews, and I came up with a conclusion. This chapter gives you half of that, Enjoy.
Where did we last leave off? Oh yeah! I had a little problem. That is… if you consider being surrounded by nightmares about to rip you to shreds a little problem. I came to the conclusion that I wasn't ready to disappear yet, especially in this way, so I had to get out of here.
How was I going to do that? If I tried to fly away the nightmares would follow me, and if I went for my weapon they would charge faster. I had to get out of this mess, and I'd have to cover my tracks. I'm not the illusion master for nothing!
"Mini-me, come in mini-me." I thought in my head.
"What?" I heard back.
"Listen, I need your help."
"Last time I checked, it didn't matter what I did."
"Now's not the time! If I'm destroyed, you're destroyed too!"
"Say it and I'll help you!"
"Seriously! Uhh, fine! What you do matters, now help me out here!"
"What do you want me to do?"
"I want you to pull out the sword from my quiver."
"I thought you would want the bow?"
"There's no time for that."
"I would love to do that, but I can't. I'm an illusion weakling!"
"Mini-me I give you the solidity and strength to get the sword out of my quiver!" I announced. You see, when I announce things like that, it's like giving my illusions a new trait. I usually don't have to say it, but it's more dramatic this way. This was temporary; it would go away after she was done the task.
"Now you're talking! One sword, coming up!" This was great! Mini-me could get the sword out and nightmares wouldn't notice anything. I felt mini-me peeking out of my head and into the quiver.
As mini-me was doing her thing, I was hearing what pitch had to say.
"Any last words, Ema? You can still change your mind." I sneered.
"I don't like threats, and you can't get rid of me so easily." He chuckled.
"Boo," he simply said. The nightmares charged. I figured this would be the best time to take the sword. Mini-me was struggling with the blade.
I quickly swiped the sword from the quiver and struck down on the first nightmare turning it to dust. I then elongated the sword, made one quick swing, and took out 20 nightmares. I had enough room now, enough room to run for it.
After running for a bit, I imagined a giant foot kicking me to safety. I don't know why I chose giant foot, but I went with it. A giant invisible foot then kicked to safety, just to let you know, that hurt. While I was in the air, I made the giant foot crush a few dozen nightmares.
When I was temporarily safe, I thought now was the time to carry out my plan.
"Mini-me, time to strut your stuff!" I cried pulling out Mini-me and making her my size. You know what she did first, she strutted her stuff, like actual strutting.
"I mean pretend to be me, act afraid and run away from nightmares."
"That's not really going to be hard to do."
"Actually, it might…not be, because if he gets your hands on you, you're going to disappear forever and I won't be able to bring you back."
"What!"
"I'd run if I were you." I shrank myself down to a tiny size and hid in the bushes. Mini-me gave the swarm of nightmares coming towards her the deer in the headlights look, then ran screaming at the top of her lungs. I knew she would fly if she could, but she doesn't have my powers except for changing color when she's angry or afraid. Boy was she translucent; if she kept going like that she'd be invisible.
I knew the nightmares were now following her; I inserted all my fear into her. Of course I lied to her. If Pitch tried to destroy her, she'd go back inside my head. What? I had to, she's a terrible liar. If I told her she was going to be fine, she would never be able to convince them that she was afraid.
After that was taken care of, on to the next part of my plan! I grew back to normal size and I went back to my tree. First I washed it out with all the courage I had at that moment, then I put a protective barrier around it. Now it would seem like it wasn't there to all who want to do me harm.
Next step, I pulled out my calendar. I looked at today's date with the writing of 'GO HOME TODAY!' I erased it and replaced it with 'Go to Berwick today.' A few days later I wrote 'go to Sahara.' A few weeks later 'go to Gobi.' I put down a bunch of random other deserts on random dates, and then when I ran out of deserts, I put a bunch of random towns. I took a picture of all the town and desert names and stored the camera in my head. Talk about photographic memory. I just had to remember not to go to those places and I would be safe.
I put the calendar on the ground, and covered it with leaves. I made it so a message on the leaves stood out 'ac ros' if Jack comes across this message, he'll know what it means.
Done and done, I contacted Mini-me.
"Mini-me, come in. but don't talk aloud, I don't want him to know you're talking to me."
"What?"
"I've done my business."
"You went to the bathroom while I'm running for my life!"
"Eww, no!" We mythical beings eat whenever we want, so we don't have to go to the bathroom. "I mean I'm done my plan, well most of it. I'm coming to pick you up and carry out the last part of the plan because you are a terrible liar."
"Okay, but hurry."
"I will, just stay where you are." She stopped.
"No, don't stay put! I mean stay in that area, keep running around."
"Oh, okay." She continued running. I could pinpoint her location from there and it wasn't far off. I flew over to her area, but stayed at a distance. Turns out she got caught. The nightmares gave her about a foot of space, unlike me, who got a few feet. Pitch told them to stop attacking her so he could get close enough to watch.
She was so afraid she was almost completely invisible, poor girl. She saw me though and gained some courage and visibility. She was still a bad liar.
"Oh no," she said as though reading a telegrah. "Looks like I am out of arrows and can't fight back. You beat me. I'm doomed."
"Wait a minute," proclaimed Pitch. "If I know one thing about Ema Fay it's that she never runs out of arrows." He stepped forward and swiped a hand through mini-me. She flickered.
"Busted." She quickly said, and 'poof' she was back in my head. "YOU LIAR!" she screamed at me in my head. "You said I was done for if he caught me!"
"Not the time!" I shouted back in my head. I popped out of the bushes.
"Dang it! I thought I could trick you with that one, if only that illusion was better at lying!" I proclaimed acting cross with myself.
"You know you just gave yourself away," he said slyly.
"Yes I admit that was stupid. But you know what's not stupid? Going to place you can't get me, my most favorite place in the whole world!"
I started to run, and then I quickly made a trampoline, jumped, and shouted "LUGE TRACK TO THE SAHARA!"
So, what do you all think. What will happen next? Stay tuned to find out. Any guesses? Tell me in reveiws.
