A/N New Chapter Yeah! this chapter was originally going to feature POV's from Katherine and Jack but I felt that would make this way too long. So what's going to happen is that those POV's are going to be in the next chapter chopped into bits and pieces while plot happens around them. (Or a Oneshot whatever I believe makes the most sense)

Three Weeks Later

It had been three weeks since Sarah had been taken and still no one had a clue to where she was.

North had come back and had declared what everyone had known was going to happen the Lair was empty. Everyone had immediately gone to work trying to locate Sarah but they had yielded no results.

Tooth had sent out over a hundred fairies to search for Sarah but every single one of them had come back shaking their heads.

North had tried to say Sarah's name and find her that way, but unfortunately that yielded no results. North had no idea if it was because snow globes had trouble locking on to living beings anyway or whether or not Pitch was in a place that was untraceable. Though honestly Jackie had a feeling that it was some strange combination of both.

Katherine had sent every animal that lived in Santoff Claussen to cross the globe looking for Sarah. Yet so far none had come back.

Jackie had done the same thing though instead she sent the leaves begging them with tears in her eyes to find her best friend.

She would have done more, but every moment of her going against her parent's wishes had ended with things becoming inadvertently worse.

Nyx had not come home since she left with North. Everyone suspected that Nyx had left to find Sarah on her own. And no one had tried brining Nyx home. Jackie left food and the window open every night for Nyx (she'd done the same at home as well during the winter when Nyx would go out flying, and Sarah was unable to keep the window of her bedroom open do to the chilling temperature). But as of yet no one had seen the poor lonely sad and possibly angry bird.

Bunny had sent tunnels straight into the Earths Core hoping that he would be hiding their as he had once done years before but that had yielded next to no results.

Sandy like everyone else had sent his own helpers to look but as with everyone else his sand creatures had not returned.

Mr. Jessup hadn't slept since his daughter went missing spending night and day reading through spell books to find something anything that would help him find his daughter but so far he could not find anything, Jonathan and Katherine had also taken to looking through every book they could find to find something but so far no one could find anything.

Jackie still remembered the day Mr. Jessup had snapped and was thankful that Jack had been out that day, otherwise things could have gone a lot worse then they did.

Flashback

"Go to bed Nick" Mrs. Jessup said a hand already on her husbands arm. "You'll be of no use to anyone tired and cranky"

"I'm of no use to anyone now!" Mr. Jessup had yelled at his wife unaware of the audience that had been drawn in by the screaming Sophie herself was trying to usher Jackie out of the room, but Jackie was rooted to the floor unable to movie. "I have to find my little girl! Help bring her home."

"You can't do anything when your unfocused" Mrs. Jessup said. "Please just take a break."

That had set Mr. Jessup off. "Don't you care?" He screamed at her. "Your daughter is missing! Kidnapped by a monster, and you want me to sleep?"

Mrs. Jessup's eyes had widened. "Of course I want her found, Nick"

"You have a funny way of showing it" Mr. Jessup hissed before turning to see everyone staring at him.

"What are you looking at?" He aske gruffly before he zeroed in on Jackie.

"You" He hissed at his daughters best friend.

"Jackie, leave come on" Sophie ushered succeeding in having Jackie step out of the room. Jack unfortunately had left to give Canada another snowfall but had promised to be back before nightfall.

"It should have been you" The father hissed at her. "Now because of you, my daughter is gone"

Slap!

Everything in the kitchen froze as everyone turned to see what had happened.

Mr. Jessup was clutching his cheek; Mrs. Jessup's hand still raised after she had slapped him.

"Now you listen and you listen good" Mrs. Jessup said darkly. "It is not Jackie's fault It's not anyone's it's just rotten luck, followed by even worse timing." She said this time wrapping an arm around him and actually succeeding in tugging him away. "And now you are going to head upstairs to bed, get some sleep and hopefully when you wake up you'll be of your right mind."

Flashback

It had worked sort of, Mr. Jessup went to sleep and was better when he woke up, even apologizing to Jackie when he came downstairs but everyone could tell that the Jessups where still on edge.

Will the Santoff Claussen boy from the village had come over asking where Sarah was when Jackie had revealed the truth he had gone silent before leaving the house. He or his siblings (5 brothers all with the same name of William, and a little girl with the name Wilamena) hadn't been seen since. There parents had not seemed all that perturbed and Jackie had thought that odd until she remembered that a) the eldest sibling was 20 years old and adult and old enough to take care of children, b) all 6 of them could wield varying degrees of magic and c) Sarah had once revealed that it was normal for children to leave the village to see the world beyond its borders.

Jack went out early every morning and came back shortly after the sun went down. Jackie didn't really mind so much, she knew he was just trying to repay the debt he owed to Sarah when Sarah found him and helped free him.

After a week everyone had gone back home. Tooth had left when Mr. Jessup had declared her wing completely healed. And the other guardians had left unwillingly telling them that they had other children to care for.

Jackie had understood, though Mr. Jessup and Jonathan had not given the guardians a proper goodbye neither being willing to remove themselves from Ombric Shalazar's (the name of the man who had raised Katherine, and founded Santoff Claussen's) old study.

"We'll find her Jackie" North had promised with a clasp on her shoulder. "Just because I'm not here does not mean I'm searching for her."

Jackie just nodded but said nothing not trusting herself not to cry.

Tooth, and Sandy had given her hugs while Bunny just coughed self consciously and gave her an awkward pat on the head. Before they all had disappeared.

Jackie wouldn't say she missed their presence. But suddenly with all the guardians gone she felt the absence of Sarah more strongly.

Silence was everywhere now, which was something Sarah would never have tolerated. She would have turned the music up, or talked at a mile a minute. She would have danced and played and dragged Jackie into whatever mischief she was conjuring. But now…

All there was, was silence. And that filled Jackie with more hopelessness and fear than Pitch ever could.

Jackie had no idea if it was Pitch or just her own hopelessness counteracting the dreamsand, but ever since Sarah had left her dreams had become nightmares. Every morning she would wake up from a cold sweat from nightmares of Sarah with cold black eyes, holding a black sword made entirely out of nightmare sand.

Jackie had told her parents but after an extensive search had finally deduced that it was Jackie's panic and hopelessness getting to her. Jackie wasn't so sure, but other then finding Sarah there was little else anyone could do.

She wanted to be out there searching turning over every stone, looking in every nook and cranny. But every time she tried to someone would try to stop her. The Lady of the Forest (She could grow wings whenever it was convenient now), Her dad, even Jonathan himself would stop her from leaving exclaiming that two people under Pitch's thumb was a bad idea.

Eventually she saw the wisdom in everyone's words and stopped trying to leave. Instead asking her father to help her master her powers.

Jack had agreed, and every night they would practise. And slowly but surely Jackie got better at controlling her powers.

When she wasn't practising Jackie would spend her days walking through the forests trying to commit as much of it to memory as possible. Or at Nightlight's crypt unable to shake the feeling that she knew the immortal being not like in a past life but as if she had met him recently. She would stare at his dagger becoming mesmerized by the way it pulsed in her hand.

It had not escaped her notice the way Jack would stare at it longingly and confused as though he wanted it, but had no idea why. The dagger itself seemed to be conflicted it what it wanted. Both wanting to be held by the winter spirit and at the same time being worried about what doing so would mean.

Jackie had once asked the dagger why it did that (out of curiosity and a need to forget – for a moment – the danger her friend was in) but the moonbeam wouldn't answer. Just send out feelings of horror and sadness, but through those feelings Jackie got the strange impression that the moonbeam wanted to protect Jack from those feelings.

It confused Jackie to no end but with everything being the way it was she didn't have time to worry about matters of a dagger. Not when Pitch was on the loose.

Unfortunately for everyone the reason why Pitch was no where to be found was for the simple fact that the place he was at was impossible to get through, unless one was of the family of Pitch Black.

He was on a ghost island. An island that ghosted through the ocean never staying in one place for long. The island itself was surrounded by magic specifically designed to keep the outside world out and the inside world in.

It had been created by Mother Nature as a prison for a powerful young sorceress who had dared to oppose his daughter.

The sorceress had died over 2000 years before but Mother Nature had never removed the wards. Making it the ideal hide out for him and his future protégé.

The island itself was warded with blood magic and it would have been impossible for those without mother natures approval to set forth on the island had it not been for the fact that Pitch himself was related to Mother Nature. (No matter how much she wished otherwise)

He shadow-traveled into the basement of the gorgeous white house that lay just beyond the shore. He stood in front of black door and with a wave of his hand created a black key made entirely of black sand.

He unlocked the door to a cloud of black sand. Pitch waved his hand and the black sand fell to the ground revealing Sarah her head bent low as she sat on the wooden bench on the far end of the room.

She had grown a little taller now looking around thirteen as opposed to the ten-year-old girl he had dropped there 3 weeks before. Her raven colored tresses had grow longer.

Pitch smiled. "Are you done fighting Sarah?" He purred to her. "Have you finally seen how futile it is to fight the darkness."

Slowly Sarah raised her head her eyes now a coal black. "Yes, father" She said smirking maliciously up at Pitch.

A/N Anyone want to take a stab at the island and who it used to Imprison? (P.S The witch (sorceress, whatever) will not be making an appearance – unless you guys want a one shot based off this witch- in which case let me know in the comments below.)
