"This way, this way!" Shouted Bunny as he hopped ahead of us, while Santa and the Tooth Fairy made up the rear. We followed him into an ally way, the ally way was a dead end. "Oh no, dead end! Other way, other way!" he shouted, it was a little funny how at charge he was, even for his height, but we still listened. We were about to turn around and head back, but then Jack Crashed into a dumpster next to us. "Jack!" I shouted as I ran over to him to see if he was okay. Jack sat up, Santa said "That was a good try Jack, A for effort" Jack said shakily
"He's stronger, I can't beat him." I knew this was a problem. Jack was in the best state of anyone there. If he couldn't beat him, no one could.
Then a cold menacing laugh echoed through the ally way. A shadow of a man passed over us. The others looked worried "All this fuss over one little boy and he still refuses to stop believing." I got scared at the fact he was talking about me. Wispy shadows of horses passed over the trucks parked in the ally, and they went to join the shadow of the man. Jack put his hand in front of me protectively "Very well, there are other ways to snuff out a light." He continued his voice echoing, the shadows passed over the street lights and as they did they broke leaving only darkness.
"If you want him you're going to have go through me!" Said Bunny, jumping in front of all of us. A shadowy hand came out and approached bunny making a scratching gesture "Look how fluffy you are, would you like a scratch behind the ears?" the voice said laughing, Bunny then freaked out and jumped up Santa's arm and onto his shoulder. "Don't you even think about it!" Bunny snapped.
Shadow-like horses with yellow eyes approached us, black sand trailing off their bodies. "I can't tell how happy I am to see you all like this." The voice said, and then a figure rode into the light. He had pale skin and yellow eyes, his black hair shot up on his head like a flame. He was riding one of those scary horses like it was just a regular horse. "You all look awful." He said smiling evilly.
The others scowled at him, but I couldn't help but shudder. He was scary, he was powerful and he was determined on hurting me and my new friends. The shadows inched closer and closer to us. I backed up farther and said "Jack, I'm scared." He looked at me reassuringly, but then he was lost in thought for a moment. "We're going to have a little fun instead..." he said softly not exactly looking at me, and then he turned to me with confidence. "That's it! That's my center!" I was a little confused by this statement. What's a center? What's your center? I thought. Then I remembered the psycho riding toward me, laughing evilly.
"So what do you think, Jamie," I was startled when he said my name, then Jack got up looking determined and turned towards Pitch. I just stared in fear at this monster. "Do you believe...in the Boogey-ahh!" he was cut off by a snowball in the face, I couldn't help but laugh. I turned towards jack, he already had another one in his hands and was tossing it up and down, chuckling to himself. He turned towards some trash cans and said "Now let's go get your friends." Good Idea, I thought, they have got to see this. At that moment, we sledded out of there on trashcan lids and a thin path of ice.
