Black sand whipped around on the floor.
"Jack! What was that?!"
" I don't know" he said now looking her in the eye "but we're gonna be oka-" he stopped and screamed in pain. Lizzie gasped and saw a shadow standing over him holding a scythe that had managed to rip through Jack's hoodie and leave him with a nasty wound.
Lizzie was furious now. Jack was her friend and he was hurt by this thing. She looked around the room and saw that the others were unconscious. She turned back to Jack now in her arms, he looked at her with his gorgeous sapphire blue eyes corrupt with fear and the longing for help. Her eyes started to turn glossy but she held back the tears. She laid Jack down and stood up to face the shadow that hid in the darkness of the room.
She glared at the shadow. "WHO. ARE. YOU. What have you done to them?!" She yelled.
"Tisk, tisk. We mustn't get upset. It makes you look weak you know.. And we can't have that can we?" Said the shadow. He laughed terrible and evil laugh that would make you get chills up your spine. But she kept her ground. She wasn't afraid.
"I asked you a question... Now ANSWER IT." She said with a little more hate in her voice
"We'll you should know. I am after all the Boogeyman. I am the master and the controller of fear and nightmares." he said with another laugh. "My name..." He stepped into the light "... Is Pitch" Lizzie glared at what she saw. He had very pale grayish skin. He wore a robe that was black and it faded into his body. His face was the worst. His smile was menacing and his eyes looked as if they could stare right into your soul and use whatever fear they found against you. The emotion on her face still didn't change.
"Don't you... Touch her." Said a voice
Lizzie turned around and saw that it was Bunny who was getting up and slowly taking out his boomerangs. He was still a little wobbly.
"Ugh... Lets make this conversation private shall we?" Said Pitch as he rolled his eyes. Once Bunny finally gained consciousness he bounded towards to attack. Pitch spread his arms so that he and Lizzie were enveloped in black sand and put of reach.
Pitch walked around her with his arms behind his back. "Well, well, well... The Man in the Moon has outdone himself this time. It appears he has chosen you to be a new Guardian. How wonderful... A new piece in my little puzzle."
"Just cut to the chase, what do you want with us?" She said
"Revenge" he said "I want them to cower, I want them to suffer, I want them to feel what I felt for so many years in the darkness... To truly make their fears come true and live in them." He said with his eyes narrowed. she really wished she had her bow and arrows right now. She could finish this guy off. "...and you.." He continued "Are just a minor bump in the road. I admit I am a little surprised with your bravery.. But no matter.. This will only take a second." He said. Lizzie's eyes widened as he summoned his scythe again and swung it at her. She hopped out off the way and immediately lit herself on fire. She sent fire in the direction of his abdomen which was a hit. He bent over in pain but recovered more quickly than she wanted. "Your going to pay for that you little insect" he growled through grit teeth.
He punched her in the face and then in the stomach. He picked her up by the throat and held her high. "Sweet dreams..." Suddenly there was a white flash and everything went cold.
