Chapter 5: re-awakening of evil
Normal POV
One of the nightmares chasing Pitch managed to escape when the strange girl managed to save Pitch and destroy the other nightmares with a strange flash of light coming from what used to be a broomstick… now alone he looked from the top of a hill as his former master tried to get the strange girl to wake up, before he fainted as well… after which the Guardians arrested Pitch and took the girl along as well. Probably to keep her from dying…
"I should go and help him…" the nightmare named Ordenant thought, looking on as the Guardians bickered about what to do with the girl. At one side it seemed like the easter bunny and jack frost wanted to bring her to the closest village so authorities could help her… but at the other hand sandman, santa claus and the toothfairy wanted to take the girl along to the north pole to help her there…and to find out why she had wanted to help Pitch… "master would expect me to help him…. And yet…."
"and yet you can't…can you?" ordenant looked around with a shocked look when he heard a voice call this out of nowhere. "you can feel it…. Can't you?... The power off the blast coming from that strange girl accidently gave you your own concioussness…."
"who….who are you?" Ordenant asked, cursing at himself for allowing his voice to tremble, stomping his hoof to put power by his words and hoping with all his might whatever was here with him didn't heard his voice tremble just now. "show yourself!"
"oo don't be afraid my four footed friend" the shadow whispered, slithering around the nightmare like a snake slithering around it's pray… taunting before the attack. "I am a friend…"
"Then show your face!" ordenant demanded, looking from left to right… eyes perked up, eyes wide… waiting for whatever was here to come out of it's hiding place.
"oo i can…. But what would i gain from that?" the shadow asked… left! No right! Ordenant snorted… looking around with a bewilderd look as he tried to decide where the voice was coming from… "i only came by to make you a offer"
"i am not going to make a deal with some nameless, faceless shadow!" ordenant called, again stomping it's hoof as it was starting to grow impatient…
"it seems your former master taught you well…" the shadow slithered, before it moved out of the shadows now, revealing a 4.7 foot tall snake… reaching just above Ordenant's head… making the nightmare jump back in a shocked way as he let out a little shocked wine. "well…. Here I am… "
"wh…what are you" Ordenant asked with a uncertain voice as he carefully scooped a little closer and sniffed the creature. He smelled strange…. Yet vaguely…. Very vaguely…. He also record-iced the smell of his master… tho it was very vague…. The two probably met at some point…. Nothing to be paranoid about.
"yet if they just met before… then why did master never mention this? Or asked this creature for help with his plans?" a little voice in the back of ordenants head asked, but the nightmare decided those were questions for later… when he met up with master and the others… maybe onyx knew more… he was masters closest nightmare henchman… he would know…
"I am obscures " obscures gave a slight bow "once a powerfull being... and now... nothing but a comman rattle snake"
"You lost all off your powers...how?" Ordenant asked, sounding both shocked and horrefied by the revelation. "Who would do such a awfull thing?"
"Your master and that BITCH Fellandia!" Obscures growled, smirking as his plan was seemingly working... the nightmare was falling for his trap with wide open eyes. "He robbed me off the artifact that gave me my powers"
"Well... the lair is empty now appart from some of my siblings... i cououould see if my master still has it and take it here for you" ordenant offered, giving a soft wine and rusteling its wings as a idea formed in its head. "If..."
"Aaaaah i see... you want something in return huh?" Obscures grinned... perfect... he would get his powers back and get some match needed helpers in one shot. "And what would that be my friend?"
"A permanent form... i wanne be mortal...or...immortal...whatever my former boss used to be" Ordenant replied solemnly as he looked down at himself. "As long as i can move about at my own free will by day and by night"
"That can be arranged my friend" Obscures smirked, holding out its tail. "So... do we have ourselves a deal?"
"We have a deal" ordenant replied. Knocking a hoof against the tail before they shook. "I can't wait to finally be able to move around on my own"
"I can understand your impatience my friend... but first the artifact..." Obscures nodded, making Ordenant look up suprised before nodding and dissapearing in a flash for a small moment. When he returned he had a large black and green vail in its mouth.
Inside the vail it seems a sort of green sludge... or mist... was moving around endlessly while the black outside was shaped like a snake that moved around the green vail. The whole thing gave Ordenant the creeps, but seeing it seemed to please Obscures... who snatched it from its mouth and hugged it like he was hugging a lover.
"Aaaah my old friend, finally together again" Obscures lauched as he grew steadily in size, match to the shock and horror or Ordenant. "Finally my dark plan will be forefilled and the last of the lunanoff's will die!"
A Shot off lightning hit really close to Ordenant. Making him wine and jump away from it as a tune started to play.
"In the dark of the night i was tossing and turning
And the nightmare i had was as bad as can be
The nightmare made me go thin! A snake losing it's skin.
Then i opened my eyes and the nightmare was me!
I was once the most powerfull being in the galaxy
They whispered my name and quivered in fear.
Everything went to my design! And the brat should have been mine
But those two brats outsmarted me and made me end here! As he said "here" Obscures smacked its tail on a rock, instandly splitting it in two. Making ordenant quiver in fear as he hide behind a rock. Little brats beware obscures found you at last!
In the dark of the night evil will find her!
In the dark of the night...just before dawn.
Revenge will be sweet! When my task is complete
In the dark off the night.. she will be gone!
I can feel my powers are steadily growing!
Tie my sash and a dash off colone for that smell
When the pieces fall into place
I will see her crawl into place
Do svidanja Fellandia your grace! farewell!
In the dark of the night terrow will strike her
Terror's the least i can do! Obscures called as more nightmares gathered around Obscures, including Pitch's once most trusted right hand nightmare named Onyx. Who seemed sad to be here at first, before seemingly realizing Pitch was done for and this was his chance at freedom and closed in on Obscures as well.
In the dark of the night evil will brew.
Soon she will feel.
That her nightmares are real.
In the dark of the night she'll be throught!
As they sang this the now huge snake Obscures slithered in some sort of old bunker. Followed by all the nightmares whom were humming along with the tune. In the middle of the bunker stood some sort of alter. Meant for some sort of ritual.
In the dark evil will find her (find her)
"Ooooo" he nightmares chanted, forming a long row towards the alter. Hailing in their new master Obscures like a heero.
"In the dark off the night terror comes true!
DOOM HER
My dears here's a sign! Its the end off the lunanoff line!
In the dark off the night!
In the dark off the night!
In the dark off the night!
Come my friends! Let's rise from the darkness. Let's let our evil shine.
Obscures sang, dripping a strange black sludge from his own body into the kettle on the alter followed by some off the green sludge from the ornement , making a light flash from the kettle that made the gathered nightmares shine with a dark power.
"Find her now! Yes fly ever faster" many off the nightmares now started to take flight, darkening the room as they went after their former master and Fellandia.
In the dark off the night!
In the dark off the night!
In the dark off the night!
They will be mine! Obscures called, cackling evily as he watched the last nightmares flew off after Fellandia and Pitch... leaving only Ordenant with Obscures.
"Master... what are you going to do with the girl once you find her?" The nightmare dared to ask after a small moment off total silence in which he let everything he had just witnessed sink in.
"Nothing to serious my friend... i am just going to make sure that witch doesn't twards my plans again!" Obscures smirked evily as he said this. "Meaning your old master will help me again... as he should"
"How? If you didn't even managed to make my old master obey you last time?" Ordenant asked a little perplexed. "How are you then going to convince him this time around"
"Oo this time i will be a lot less kind" Obscures smirked, getting the relic from his belt. "And a lot more dark... a lot more...cruel..."
As he said this he made a long croocked fingernail appear, which he then scratched over the glass making a screaming sound filled the air. Ordenant covered its ears with its wings and stomped its hoof... clearly in pain due to the sound he melted away into the calm quiteness off the shadows. Re-appearing a moment later in a clearing far from the bunker and Obscures were Onyx and the remainder of the herd were waiting...
well... what was left off the herd.. they had lost a lot off good nightmares in that final battle...including crystal, sapphire and emerald with whom he had been very close.
"This one is for you guys... were going to help master obscures and gain a permanent form.." Ordenant thought, letting out a little wine to allert the others he had arrived, making the entire herd wine back at him as they turned to greet him.
"And? What are our new masters orders Ordenant?" Onyx asked with a stern look.
"New master? What about master Pitch?" Ordenant asked, twitching its ears confused. Not getting why they suddenly switched loyalty while Pitch was still pretty alive and well... sure it was nice Obscures promised a permanent form and all of that... but it fell a little like betrayel to ordenant... after all... who was to say obscures was going to keep his word? "He is still alive and when he escapes he probably needs us.."
"I can't feel master Pitch's dark hearth anymore" Onyx replied solemnly before turning around to look at the big bright full moon shining in the heavens above them. "At best those goody two shoes guardians took him captive... at worst... they killed him.."
"Don't be stupit Onyx... they would never stoop as low as to kill him" Ordenant breezed shaking it's head firmly as he spoke. "That goes against everything they stand for"
"Maybe... but they do not have to be the direct cause off his death do they?" Onyx sneered while stomping it's hoof "if they lock him up still injured he would also die for example...keeps their concious clear off murder but their rid of master Pitch"
The other nightmares gathered looked at each other with a shocked look as they mumbled amongst each other. Most off them agreeing with their leader, while some had to admit it was a bit far fetched for them to leave Pitch to die of his injuries.
"He is gone either way ordenant... and that's what counts" Onyx sighted when he saw the devided opinions amongst his herd. "And now we need to focus on what's important to us. Master Obscures promised that...if we followed him we wouldn't suffer thesame fate"
"Well..." Ordenant hesitated for a moment, not sure if they should do this... his newly archieved conciousness told him to stay loyal to master Pitch... yet another part of him... that wanted to keep his newly archieved freedom... told him he should follow obscures... maybe his friends would also gain conciousness if they did... "okay then... I will follow you"
"Well actually... were following you ordenant" Onyx grimaced, twitching its ears as he said this. "Master Obscures appointed you his right hoof horse"
"What?" Ordenant jumped back in shock at the message. "Y..you have always been the masters right hoof horse...i could never..."
"That was back then with master pitch.." Onyx broke him off, shaking its head firmly as it did so. "Master Obscures believes your better fit as his rigt hoof horse"
"I am honored" Ordenant gasped, before stepping in front off the herd to adress them. "Okay guys... master Obscures wants us to go and deliver a very special nightmare to that brat Fellandia... steer clear of our formee master Pitch if you can help it while delivering the nightmare... he might try and protect the girl"
"Got it!" All the nightmares replied, before flying off with Onyx leading the attack. Leaving Ordenant alone in the clearing, looking at his brothers and sisters leaving before turning to gaze at the moon with a sorrowfull look. Sure he wanted a permanent mortal (or immortal) form... but this... was causing all this pain and sorrow really the only way?
In the dark off the night… evil is coming…
In the dark of the night they will go down…
But if i am happy or not
Guess…. I'l… give it a shot….
Cause darkness is all… that i knooooow…..
I Am not happy about it tho...
A shooting star flew throught the night sky as Ordenant trotter throught the winter snow to north's work shop… ready to lead the nightmares…
oo well... here i goooo
Ordenant sighted. His hearth was still doubting whether or not he really wanted this… he knew for now...for the sake of his herd... he had no choice in the matter.
