Hey! Chapter three out early ! Ha! Ok I hope you guys like this one I struggled for ideas but I think I did ok. Like I've been writing please comment! Tell me what you think and ideas! Also! A thing to know about Crysis is that being the spirit of life and death most of her powers are unknown. So If you have power ideas lemme know!
Chapter three: Two new Guardians and the truth comes out!
I stared completely dumbstruck at Pitch. I always thought that maybe I would end up being a guardian but I never thought, the guardians to, that Pitch would be asked to become a guardian!
"I'm not a guardian!" Pitch repeated to himself. Suddenly the brightness of the moon became so bright we all had to close our eyes. The horse spooked and fled. When we opened them again we found our selves looking at a spirit. He was tall, looked about in his early twenties, black shaggy hair and piercing blue eyes.
"My name Tsar and I am the son of the Man in the Moon." He gave a small bow. He then turned to Pitch.
"Pitch, when you were created by the fearlings all those years ago my dad has been trying ever since to change your perspective on life. But now is your chance! You were always destined to be a guardian! Father was going to make you the first but then the fearlings attacked and he couldn't! You were going to be the Guardian of Courage! But now your the Guardian of fear." Pitch looked like he wanted to hit the spirit.
"Please tell me that your kidding kid!" Bunnymund hissed.
"Look Pitch, fear is one of the many needed things in life. If a child is never scared in their childhood how will they be prepared for later on in life? People do believe in you Pitch because not only are you the bogeyman but you are also a bad dream. "
"I'm not meant to be a guardian!" Pitch said firmly. Uh! When will he get it!
"Yes Pitch you are! Wanting to come with me to help find Jack and even coming here to help the guardians proves that you are! Give it a try Pitch! Please please they need your help. You defeated Lucifer once you can help us do it again!"
"That was a very long time ago! I don't know if I can help you!" He said taking a step back.
"Help them Pitch! Do it for me!" I step toward him looking him strait in the eye. He doesn't answer.
"Uh I'm gonna go check up on Jack. I'll be back later." I hiss and leave the room. Stalking down the hall I kick an elf in my way and open Jacks door slamming it behind me. Good thing he was a already waking up.
"What wrong Crysis!?" He looks very worried. I smile.
"It's fine Jack I'm ok. Uh it's just that Mim said in order to fight Lucifer he was making me and Pitch Guardians! I mean I guess at one point I would have become one but Pitch! Then Tsar Mims son showed up and started saying why Pitch was to become a guardian. It was that he was always destined to! He was supposed to be the guardian of courage but now he is the guardian of fear! Ugh and I know that he wants to help! But he just doesn't want to! I think he just wants to be bad guy. This is confusing I'm sorry I'm talking way to much!" I shut my mouth and sit cross legged on Jacks bed.
"Hehe I haven't heard you say this much in a long time. Wow! Really? Pitch ! A guardian? Wait did you say Mims son showed up? Wait your a Guardian now?"
"Yea his name is Tsar, and yea I guess. Technically not really yet though because I haven't taken the oath yet."
"Well you should go back out there and take it! But Pitch, a guardian, I still don't get it!"
"I know I know me too Jack. But Tsar said something about him being the guardian of fear."
"Yea you mentioned that"
"And that fear was a needed thing in a child's life."
"Yea it is a big thing that u need."
"Anyway! How are you feeling?"
"Ok I think! I don't know why but I think I'm almost healed!"
"Yea" I exclaimed " it's a thing that happens when I heal, you will heal up a lot faster than normal. Do you think you can walk?" I ask getting up.
"Yea I think so." He gets up and carefully takes a step. He smiled. " yup! I can walk! Great can you pass my hoodie please?"
"Can do" I snatch it off the hook and toss it to him.
"Ok let's go meet this weird moon kid" Jack laughs and we head out back to the main room where the guardians, Tsar and Pitch still bicker. Growling under my breath I snap out.
"Oh will you all just shut up!" The room goes quiet. I turn to Pitch. " Pitch ! Face it your gonna be a guardian eventually so why not now? Life is never gonna stay the same! Believe me I know! You have to get used to change! I know you don't want to be a guardian! Neither do I but what can we do?" I let it all out now.
"Wait ! You don't want to be a guardian? But Crysis why not?" Pitch asks.
"Why would I wanna work the creatures who practically ruined my child hood? I never found any eggs, or received and Christmas gifts, I never experienced a nightmare, or a peaceful dream and each tooth lays abandoned under my pillow each morning. But I always believed. My parents were beyond abusive, I know they wanted me dead. I always thought that maybe one day the guardians would help me but did they ever! Not even you helped me Pitch! I never had a single nightmare to take away the pain of being beaten every day of my life!" Hot tears streamed down my face as I held out my wrists. "See these? Yea my parents tried all the most painful ways to kill me and eventually they had enough and just shot me!" Sobbing I collapsed to the floor. "So know you know why I have never talked or stopped to help you. Because you never helped me!" My entire body shook I just couldn't do this anymore, I staggered to my feet my collapsed again when something hit me in the side of the head. Instantly dreams took me under. Damn it Sandy! I was gonna seriously injure that thing when I woke up. But for now I let the dreams distract me.
I don't know how long I slept for but when I woke up it was night time again so I'm guessing at least the whole day. I rolled over and opened my eyes. I met the golden stare of Pitch from across the room.
"What are you doing Pitch!?" I squeak sitting up fast. He chuckled and walked over and sat down on the edge of my bed.
"Relax Crysis I was just checking up on you and you woke up. It's ok."
"I'm sorry..."
"For what!?"
"My stupid mental break down earlier I wish you hadn't seen that." My face becomes very hot.
"Its ok Crysis it happens. Yeesh! It should be the Guardians apologizing! When you said all that stuff and tried to leave and Sanderson hit you with the dream sand you should have seen the guilt on their faces! It was priceless !" He laughed. "Oh ya your probably going to hate me for this but it's official we are now Guardians. "Oh no he didn't! I smack him across the face.
"Pitch!"
"Ow! Ok I said we not you ! I agreed ! Ok! For you, just...just like you asked ok. We will do this together ok Crysis!" Pitch takes my hand.
"Ok Pitch." I smile" wow who knew the Almighty Nightmare king had a soft spot" I giggle. His face goes bright red which causes me to giggle harder and he quickly pulls his had away and gets up. He walks to the door. But before leaving he turn s and smiles. About five minutes after the door closes it opens again and all the guardians step into the room.
"Crysis, we made mistake, its rare that a child is forgotten. We all terribly sorry Crysis. Please will you accept apology?" North sighs.
"It hurts more when it was all of you but I guess 500 years of ignoring you is enough. Yes I forgive you all." Yawning I lay back down. Once they are gone I close my eyes and drift back to sleep. From the moment I fall asleep to when I wake my dreams are filled with Pitch. I don't know but I think I may be falling for him! When I wake there are clean clothes and food waiting for me on the nightstand. Once I'm dressed, cleaned up and have eaten I head out into the hall to try and find the others. Turning a corner I smack right into Pitch. Oops! I step back.
"Little clumsy aren't we ?" He smiles. I love it when he smiles. It's something he rarely does and it makes me happy to see his smile.
"Sorry Pitch." I smile lightly back.
"Come on. Everyone is waiting. We are having a meet to discuss what to do about Lucifer." He turns and I follow him down the hall. We enter a room that has a large round table in the center with chairs all around. I take a seat beside Pitch.
"Oh good we can start now. " North says. "Well we already know that he has attacked two if us and took Pitch's nightmares. We need to be very careful now with everything we do. Don't go out alone! Ok anything else ? Alright" I stand and begin to walk to the door. Suddenly I horrible pain fills my head. Screaming I collapse to the floor my mind searching out. Sometime I can see things that have happened, happening now and are going to happen. When the pain stops I open my eyes to find myself in a dark cave. Damn it! My soul left my body to! Aww crap this isn't good I can feel it. I struggle up to my feet.
"Well well well, I finally got your attention and now hear me out Crysis. Yes I know who you are, and your going to send a little message back to your pathetic friends for me."
Gasping I turn and find myself standing before Lucifer, the devil.
