Chapter 13: Sights
Jack was flying without a care. All that was on his mind was all the fun he might have that night. Sandy told him to go to North's, but Jack didn't really want to. He just wanted to have some fun. He was flying when he saw a dark figure and then everything went black.
When he woke up he saw everything was black. He stood up and saw the same girl he did at tooth palace. Pale with the black fox mask. Her dress was all black with two shoulder pads that were a dark silver. Dragons heads came out the sides. Her hair was white. All the shaded spots were light grey. Two pieces were resting on her shoulders starting near the bottom wrapped with black fabric till the bottom.
"Frost I have a bone to pick with you, you broke our deal." she said with a stern tone.
"What do you mean? I protected her like you said." Jack said. "And why did you kidnap me?"
"No you didn't. Pitch attacked yesterday night. She is now terrified. I don't want to describe what exactly he did to her. It horrifies even the heartless like me. I can heal the damage, but now she's more scared then ever. And i don't know what the hell he'll do to her next! " her two hands were now fists.
"She let me go back, and can't you not separate anymore." Jack stated arguably.
"I can escape by using dream magic. But only enter or alter dreams.
Look Jack even I'm worried for her, and right now you're the only hope left." she said looking to the ground.
"You're hiding something, aren't you?"
"Absolutely nothing." she said. She put her fingers above the eyes of her mask and slid it off. The mask laid there on the "ground". Jack looked at her as she opened her eyes. What he saw made him jump out of his skin.
Her eyes were abnormal. What would've been white was black. Her iris' were red deep red, pupils black as well. "How are your eyes like that?" Jack asked a little scared.
"It's natural." she said.
"Supernatural." Jack said. She glared at him. Which was freakier than it normally would be with those abnormal eyes.
"Don't try it." she said firmly with a darker tone in her voice. "Either way there's something i need to discuss with you..."
In the library...
I gasped. Everything hurt so much. My legs and arms and back. I stood up some how. It made it hurt. I knew each step would hurt so much but i had to walk. Only after a few steps i let out a small cry of pain. It hurts so much, doesn't it? I turned around. No one. It's not the voice, so that means that it could only be one person. My body tightens up at the sound of his voice. I can feel my heart beating in me. Everything hurts so much all over again. It's all the fear, again. I can't do it. I feel all alone. I like that about you. It doesn't take too long for someone like Jack Frost to get over fear, but you are special. I suspect that in your life there was always some element of fear. Unlike other people you always knew it was there. And you never fully healed from anything did you?
His voice purrs as rings though my ears. Not like the way a cat does. A cat purrs when it's showing you it's happy. He was purring at my fear and his satisfaction. It was a mocking purr. The thing is, i needed you to know that this could stop anytime. If you join me. Or i could do something like this. I feel the air going away. i clutch my throat. I knew he could kill me at any given moment. I knew he would choose to do it like this. Choke me. I cling on to dear life, but everything is still going out black. Pitch black to be exact.
Wake up and look around me to see everything is black. It's pure darkness. I know this place. I'm inside a shadow. Everything feels normal, but you know that it isn't. That's what ti feels like when you wake up inside a shadow. Everything still hurts. That's how i know I'm not in a dream.
"I think you may recall this place." a voice male like nails on a chalk board and silk at the exact same time said.
"Pitch." i turn to see the tall dark figure.
"Don't give me that look, you wouldn't want to start a fight would you. Then again it might just be quite interesting since we are on very equal with our abilities." he gave me a small dark twisted smile.
"Sdrowsfoviel-!" my arm twists backwards and i hold in the scream. Gritting my teeth as hard as i can i give him a small glare.
"Oh right but we're. You're at my mercy as long as you stop using your shadows the way you used to." that's right i used to use my black sand. I never hurt anyone, but i could use it very well. I was pretty descent.
"What do you want!?"
"A favour from you. It involves you and that immature guardian Jack Frost"
"And why would I do something for someone of the likes of likes you". My arm twists further
"I don't exactly think right now you have a choice." he smiled wickedly at me.
"Case in point."
"Now back to this favour..."
Back to Jack.
"Okay before i answer your questions you have to answer mine!"
"And what might those be?"
"Why did you kidnap me?!"
"I am insulted! I didn't kidnap you, i simply used my powers to pull you into a pocket-like dimension!" she said folding her arms. It's like Jack wouldn't stop asking so many questions. It annoyed her immensely.
"You know what Frost. You just need to puekaw!" Jack felt himself be swallowed into darkness once again.
He woke up on the ground covered in his own snow and sweat. "Why does she insist on hiding so much from me?" he asked himself as he brushed the snow his shoulders.
At the library once again:
My head is throbbing. i look at my fist and unfold an stare down at my palms as they shake. I hear his voice again. All it says is do it. It pounds in my head do it. I sigh. I watch as i let it out. The black sand flows through my fingertips in a design of twisting and waving lines. It looks amazing. When i move my hand, it moves with it.
Time to take it one step further. I stat swirling my fingertips , and watch my desired shape form. I start to gin as it finishes. A simple cat. I don't need to control it. It stretches and i rub my fingers down it's long thin back. Looking up at me as it purr's gently.
What are you doing!?
You scared me!
What are you doing?
Nothing.
You were using you powers! I'm so proud! You haven't used your powers since you were so young! You always seemed to use it so beautifully!
Uh yeah, I guess. I let a small laugh. I gasp. It sounded darker. I can't let it out. Got to keep the fear inside of me. Can't let it out. I know I'm better than pitch with my power so i have to keep it in.
A.N.I hope you guys enjoyed r&R
