I hope you all liked chapter 1 sorry it kind of started out slow, but it will get much better, I promise. I just have to introduce all of the characters and the plot.
Chapter 2, My powers and Pitch
I had decided that I needed to go back home, to see my family to tell them what had happened. So I walked up to the top deck of my ship. When I got to my controls, I noticed everything was different except the wheel. There is a swivel chair in the middle and the controls wrapped around in a half circle. On the left side there is a small globe, like the one in North's factory except much smaller, and under that there was a lever that was labeled "Up-Float-Down", and by that there was another lever labeled Faster/Slower. In the middle of the half circle was the steering wheel, and on the right side there is an elaborate set of controls that are labeled for teleporting. I was amazed, the first thing I had to try was the Up/Down lever. I sat down in my chair, firmly grabbed the lever, and pulled. All of a sudden the ship gave a sudden jerk and lifted into the air, almost knocking me out of my seat. I figured out pretty quick that the more I pulled on the lever, the higher I went and when I pushed it back I would descend, so I could regulate my altitude to whatever I wanted.
I decided that I would try the other controls later, I straightened my position in the seat and slowly pushed the accelerator forward and the ship quickly responded. I got to going pretty fast, around 500 miles an hour according to my speedometer and I was flying at about 1500 feet according to my altimeter. At this rate I will be home in just one hour I thought to myself, I was excited to tell my friends and family about what had happened.
When I got back to my town, I proudly flew over the most populated part of it, but for some reason no one was looking. I arrived at my house at around three o'clock in the afternoon. I walked inside and looked around. My father was sitting in his favorite chair with a quit serious look on his face, and mom was pacing back and forth in the middle of the living room. I ran to where dad was and yelled "I'm home" and then turned to mom to try to hug her, when I did I was overwhelmed with fear and sadness, I fell right thru her. Then I noticed that dad didn't even see me, they both thought I was dead.
I got out of there as quickly as I could, I couldn't stand being right there and not being able to be seen by my own parents. I would have at least thought someone would notice the massive ship floating above the house, but no. I was completely invisible to the world, or at least I thought I was.
At the same time that I was trying to figure out why no one could see me, General Kozmotis Pitchiner was having some problems of his own. He had been attacked by something unheard of in the mortal world; he was attacked by fearlings and possessed by them, making him an immortal himself, but with an incredible evil power to turn any dream into a nightmare.
That night I was walking thru the forest, trying to find something out about myself when I saw a bright golden glow, I was curious and didn't have anything better to do so I went to it. I followed it to the mouth of a cave and I cautiously went inside. I went down for probably 550 to 600 yards and then I saw it, a beautiful leather belt and attached to each side of the belt were golden swords, and the closer I got the brighter they shone. I didn't know why, but I felt that I should put it on, and I did. As soon as I did, I felt an extreme power rush thru me, the power of LIGHT! I quickly flew out of the cave, I didn't run I literally took flight and flew out of the cave and up into the sky to my ship.
When I landed on my ship I saw a note lying on my control panel, it was written on some type of silver paper, and was from Mim. It read like this. "Hi their my deer Capp, I see that you have found my gift to you. The swords harness and amplify you powers to a much more concentrated level. One power that you have learned you have is the power of light. Whether you like it or not you are to protect four things in this world; light, life, knowledge, and children. Protect the world from dark times, save lives when they are not meant to be lost, preserve all knowledge on this world and than other worlds as well, and guard the children of the world from bad times and nightmares, for the children of today are the leaders of tomorrow, they are all we have and all we are".
I was a bit astonished at this, I really didn't know what to think, but I had a job to do so I decided that I should probably do it. At that moment I sensed something really bad, like an evil kind of bad. My globe on my control panel lit up and a little dot appeared on it. I didn't know what it was but I decided to go there. I got my ship up to speed and a button lit up on my teleport controls. I touched the button and all of a sudden a beam of light shot forth from the front of my ship and a large portal opened up and within seconds I had gone from the north part of England all the way to Australia. I was almost stunned with amazement.
When I got there I noticed something horribly wrong, I could sense no happiness anywhere, and with a closer look at the children they were all having terribly bad nightmares. I walked from house to house trying to figure out what to do to stop this when I noticed the cause of the nightmares, it was General Kozmotis, or at least that's who he used to be. I looked at him and he looked at me, we were both surprised to see each other. I looked at him and said. "Kozmotis, what have you done?" And he looked at me and said. "There is no more Kozmotis, only Pitch, Pitch Black. I am the king of nightmares and ruler of darkness. And who may you be?" "I am Capp, the protector of light, knowledge, life, and children. A big part of my job is to save people from the likes of you, Pitch." He just looked at me and laughed, and then in the blink of an eye he was gone and all of the nightmares suddenly stopped. "I am going to have to find a way to track him" I thought to myself as I got back on my ship. A part of me wanted to fight him to see what I could do and the other part was worried that I wouldn't be strong enough. I was going to have to practice with my powers, get good, and then I could fight him with confidence.
