There was complete darkness. I couldn't see anything, but I could feel everything. I was surrounded by sand, must've been what the whirlpool was made of. It was obviously black sand.

I was being captured by the Boogey man. Why? I didn't know.

I was able to remove the gag in here. Probably because, they couldn't hear me anymore or the sand whirlpool acted as a muffler. When it was removed, I screamed the loudest I could, and spit out that grain of sand, no avail.

I decided I needed to be free. I was going to try my hardest to pry the hand like thing off my ankle, but before I could, I fell asleep.

It must have been the nightmare sand that put me to sleep, because after I did, I kept having nightmares. It was a replay of what happened to me in the whirlpool, over and over again. It was horrible.

This is where I wake up in my bed and find out was just a dream, nope, wrong again. When I woke up, I found my self on a stone floor. I would've expected it to be cold, but surprisingly it wasn't, it was neutral, not hot or cold.

My face felt a little pain. I checked, just a few scrapes, I was fine, well, not entirely, I still didn't know where I was exactly. I didn't know what happened.

I remembered being in my room. That's right; I got pulled through a whirlpool of black sand. The lights flickered on.

I wondered how mom and dad reacted to me being gone, I wonder if Jill's alright, will they send out search parties? Will they even believe Jill? Probably not much should answer all my questions.

I looked up. I saw a globe covered in little lights, and surrounding it were birdcages, thousands of them. I knew where I was, Pitch's lair.

There was one light that stood out from the rest. It kept flickering from the brightest bulb to snuff out every second. I examined where the light was located, somewhere in southern Ontario.

I pondered it until it hit me. "Jill?" I said. It made sense, we were very indecisive.

"I do wish she would make up her mind. Her light is making a bit of an eyesore on the globe."

I froze right there. I knew who's voice that belonged to. Pitch, the boogey man.

He was right behind me, but I didn't want to turn around, knowing if I did I might get a heart attack. I started looking all over the place (besides behind me) for an escape route.

I found one, the one that lead to the warren in the movie, maybe if I take it, it would lead me somewhere safer, but I wouldn't go for it, not yet.

"I sense your fear. You're terrified of being here, you're even afraid of turning around."

He was taunting me. He knew if I turned around I would be even more afraid. I bet I could be less afraid of talking back.

"You know what that would do." I replied.

"Yes, it would increase your fear in me, and you know I would want that."

"Why did you bring me here?"

"Like you don't already know."

I thought it over. Why would he want me here? I remember having all those nightmares, then seeing the black sand. I still don't know how it got there.

"I don't" I finally replied.

"Well, if you must know, you have a childish side."

"So does my sister and brother."

"Yes, but unlike them, you believe in me more, you have a lot more fears, and you don't face them everyday."

"So."

"So, I decided you should still have them, instead of trying to avoid them, that's why I gave you nightmares, but I "slipped up" and accidently made you see my sand, you're becoming more aware when you're dreaming, you know it's a dream, so you can't be properly scared, I'm afraid I'm losing my touch. So I brought you here, where I can work out the kinks, and have you properly scared while I'm at it."

"So when will I go home."

"Are you joking? With all your fear I could have countless nightmares, you're not going home."

"Kidnap is low, even for you"

"Hmm, you could say that, but I'm willing to try new things. …..Well, well, if I were you, I wouldn't turn around."

I heard it. Eerie horses, nightmares. They smelled my fear.

They were going to attack me on his word, I knew it. I was going to have to escape fast.

"Why don't you get her a place more comfortable?"

I didn't want to know where that place was, so I ran like the wind, not looking over my shoulder. I ran to the tunnel. I had a little blond moment.

Pitch can travel through the shadows genius. As I was running through the shadows, he grabbed me.

"Gotchya." He said, grabbing my wrists and ankles. I screamed. "Think you could escape that easily" he said dragging me back to his lair.

I was struggling with all my might to get free, but it was no use. I was dragged back and turned around to face the nightmares. I was frozen with fear.

They all swarmed around me, engulfing me in black sand. I felt myself get lifted into the air, and moved, and plopped down onto the bottom of a bird cage. Then the door was locked.

I stood up, hard to do in a suspended bird cage, and rattled the walls crying "I am not a bird!"

They were gone, it was useless. I did the only thing I could do: I sat down, curled myself into a ball, and cried.
