Pitch Black was feeling slightly disturbed over what his other self had done. He had won in this world and the Guardians were gone, but something did not feel right to Pitch. Children, while they could see him, still did not interact with him. As soon as either version of Pitch was spotted, a child would run away and hide out of fear. It wasn't any different than before he had been believed in, not really. He didn't have anyone to speak to, only children to bring fear to.
A/D Pitch, however, loved the sight of children running in fear. They all knew who he was and what he was capable of. No more hope that the endless nightmares would end. No more wonder over the world around him. Nothing was left in this world outside of his fear, and that was how he wanted things to stay. He only had one problem, one small hinderance in an otherwise perfect plan. Jack Frost was an enemy of Pitch Black in this other world and he needed to be stopped. What better way to stop him than by using A/D Jack Frost!
That was why the three of them had gathered together in A/D Pitch's lair to discuss how to find the elusive winter spirit. "You know him better than us. Just what will this winter spirit do?" A/D Pitch asked, looking towards his other self. Pitch sighed, thinking back to the Frost he knew. "Nothing good. He'll always find a way to get involved, regardless of what he tells you. He enjoys spreading snow and fun all over the world and he is always playing games." Pitch told them, shaking his head. "If only I had taken him out when I had the chance. Instead, I humored him and tried to teach him a lesson, playing games with the boy which taught him nothing." Pitch complained, thinking of how even after being abandoned, the boy refused to betray the Guardians.
"Hey, it's not your fault. I'm just naturally annoying." A/D Jack Frost joked, grinning at this other Pitch. Things were getting fun with two of them around, making the game a bit more interesting. Yes, the Guardians were long gone, but now there was a new threat, one that might actually be a challenge for Frost to deal with. He couldn't wait to fight this other Jack and see just what he was capable of.
A/D Pitch's lair was pretty comfortable, large and dark much like the original. The main difference was the absence of the cages that had been used for the tooth fairies. Now that the Guardians were gone, A/D Pitch had no use for them so they had been removed. "Any children he's particularly fond of? Any one that he would look for in this world?" A/D Pitch asked, frowning as he considered this other Frost. He sounded almost as annoying as a Guardian, which was troubling for his plans. While he could care less if the boy was in his own dimension, he was here and messing with the fear A/D Pitch had fought so hard to create.
"I imagine he tried to find those precious Guardians here, but as you well know he must have failed by now. I'm certain he's back to doing what he used to do, causing havoc with snow and trying to gain belief." Pitch told them, shrugging. If Jack was back to his old self, it didn't quite concern them that much. Playing with children was hardly enough to bring back belief in a place like this. A/D Jack frowned at the mention of gaining belief through fun, remembering his old attitude. If he couldn't succeed at gaining belief through fun, then surely this other Jack would fail as well. While he could relate to the other boy's issues, A/D Jack Frost would do exactly as Pitch ordered. It was the only way he was ever going to be seen by anyone.
Staring at the others in silence, A/D Jack knew that he had to be the one to face this other Jack. He had to see for himself what his life was like in this other world, what had made this other Jack so willing to attack the only person that understood him. "Of course he is. That still does not solve our problem. Where is he now?" A/D Pitch asked, glaring at his other self. It seemed as if he was incompetent in this other dimension. Normally, it wouldn't have bothered him, but right now it was interfering with his world, with his plans. This other Pitch better be able to handle one little spirit, if he wanted to avoid the wrath of the nightmare king.
"I'll find him for you. If he's using the wind and bringing snow to this world, I'll know about it." A/D Jack offered, kneeling down and grinning at both versions of Pitch. It might actually be fun finding this winter spirit. After all, he was dealing with himself. Even if he didn't exactly bring fun to kids anymore, A/D Jack loved any opportunity to get some entertainment in this world. "Ah, Jack, I knew I could count on you. At least someone here understands how to get some work done." A/D Pitch said, gently touching A/D Jack's shoulder. This was why the boy was such a good tool. Even as a fun-loving idiot, he had the most brilliant ideas at times. His power was useful as well, for now. Once the adults believed, though, Jack was going to go away, just like everyone else. The entire world would know nothing other than Pitch Black, if he had his way.
Pitch from the first dimension scowled at the tone of his other self, not liking being talked down to. "Let's just see if he can take care of this, as you say he can. Jack Frost will be on his own for this battle. If he wins, then we get to continue our work without interference. If he loses, we will both lose an ally that was too weak to work with us in the first place." he said, glaring at this world's Jack. This Jack seemed to be even more annoying than the one he knew, if that was even possible. Perhaps this had been a mistake, working with these people, but Pitch would not back out now. He had gained so much power simply by coming here and he would not leave quite yet. Even if nothing changed, he knew that with time he could get someone to talk to him. In this world, he just might be able to get the friends and family he always dreamed of having.
"Alright, more fun for me then. I'll catch you later!" Jack called out, turning around and flying off. Things were going to get interesting now. He could sense the snowfall already, coming directly from the town where he had first met his other self. "Alright, Jack Frost. Let's see just what you're made of." he said with a grin, speeding off towards Danville. This town would be frozen solid by the time A/D Jack was done with it. After all, he might as well spread a little fear while he was there.
