Confessions
Chapter 26
NOT MINE!
"Jamie, it's time for you to go!" Katherine said, knocking on the door.
"Coming!" Jamie called. "I have to go. I'll look at the locket as soon as I can," he said, closing the locket.
Jamie grabbed the jacket that was laying across the back of a chair and opened the door. Katherine led Jamie through the maze of tunnels to the entrance. "Wait here for PItch. He'll be here soon."
Jamie nodded and stood there, waiting for Pitch.
"Ah, Jamie, you're early," PItch said, entering the hall where Jamie was waiting, "Good, let's get going."
Pitch gave a loud whistle and two Nightmares trotted up to the pair. Pitch climbed onto one of them and motioned for Jamie to climb onto the other.
Jamie slowly approached the Nightmare. Slowly, ever so slowly, Jamie reached out a hand, stroking the Nightmare's nose.
"Good, now climb on her back. We have much to do tonight," Pitch said, an evil smirk on his face.
Jamie reluctantly climbed onto the Nightmare. "Lead the way," he said, gesturing for Pitch to go ahead.
Pitch turned his Nightmare and broke into a gallop. Jamie urged his Nightmare after Pitch, not wanting to miss any of what Pitch was going to say.
Pitch led Jamie to a small town just outside of Burgess.
"Here is where you will have your first lesson as Blizard," Pitch said, getting off of his Nightmare.
Jamie climbed off his Nightmare too. "My first lesson as what?" he asked when he reached the ground.
"Blizard," Pitch said, "The opisite of Jack Frost."
