Chapter 34
Pitch smirked amusedly. (When is he NOT smirking?)
I gestured to Caleb. "Let him go."
"No. He betrayed me. And you. Why do you want him to be let go?"
"He's still my friend. And I'm sure he has a good reason." I glared at Caleb, who wasn't able to look at me anyway.
I quickly returned to Pitch though, eying him as he stealthily walked closer.
"You're all grown up. I'm so proud." he said dryly.
"Well. A girl learns to fend for herself when her dad's an idiotic jerk." I bored my eyes into him. I knew the jerk probably wouldn't bother him, probably complimenting more than insulting. But calling him idiotic might sting him a little.
He gritted his teeth, taking a step closer to me.
"Well I'd love to chat, but I'd really just like to kill you as quickly as possible." with that he snapped his fingers, bringing black horses.
I brought up a seed and threw it at him. My plants were still quite weak. But I knew this work. At least I hoped it would work.
Pitch and I watched as the seed plopped against his chest and then thudded onto the ground.
We waited, Pitch eyeing me.
Finally pitch laughed and said amusedly "Was that supposed to do something?"
"It was.. But Eh. I'll wait." I continued smiling.
Pitch narrowed his eyes, but took out a black sand whip and axe. A weapon in each hand.
He swung and whipped his weapons around as I dodged around them. When I got close to the swarming mountain of sand engulfing Caleb, I placed some moss creatures by him to un bind. I quickly maneuvered away from him to get Pitch to not notice it and lure him towards me.
I quickly made a bushy sword and plunged it into his chest. But all it did was break.
"You'll have to try harder than that deary." he taunted.
I opened my mouth to retort the insult, but couldn't think of anything better. So I didn't say anything and ignored him.
