Unknown
Feet pound against pavement in a panicked manner with a silhouette of a man not too far behind. The girl takes sharp turns and jumps gates attempting to escape but with no avail. She propels a blast of magic at the shadow but misses and hits a wall sending ivy's spiraling up. The dark form multiplies and starts guiding the young spirit. The child is cornered down a narrow ally way. The immortal spins around wide eyed to see a man emerge from the shadows.
"Don't do this," she scrambles for words. "You don't know what you're doing."
"Don't I?" his voice says almost like a purr.
"Just tell me what you want so we can move on," the legend sighs. The shadow man laughs pointing at her pocket.
"I want something very close to you." Confused she digs out a beaten-up piece of wood with a vine connected.
"My sling-shot, what could you possibly want with it," she says in defense.
"None of you concern, now we could do this the easy way" he out-stretches his hand "or the hard way, your choice."
"You'll have to kill me first," the girl yells.
"Now Lily, I thought you were smarter than that," he smiles. Lily backs away slowly.
"Pitch, think about what you're doing." Pitch lifts his hand and snaps his fingers, at that moment all of the street lights go out. All that can be heard is Lily's scream. When the lights come back on she is gone, all that is left of her is the sling-shot deserted on the ground. Pitch laughing, approaches the item. When he picks it up a dark hue sets over the object.
"One down, three to go," he says to his shadows.
