Sorry, to keep you waiting. I forgot how fast time flies so here is the next chapter the battle you guys have been waiting for :)

Mazzchess: Yeah, apparently that Pitch Black's human name before he was turned into the nightmare king, but in this story instead being a royal king he's just an average commoner. In the next chapter you'll see what happens :)

But, in this chapter it kind of gives it away, so you'll know ahead of time.

Anyways, enjoy!

Chapter 12

Pitch's P.O.V

Jack and I stand our ground, but I knew this wouldn't last forever. He blows a snowball into his hand.

"My pleasure…" He said while smiling back, evilly.

And I thought I was evil.

He threw the snowball, but I duck before it even hit's me. "You have to do better than that, boy." I swiftly move my nightmare scythe down, in a slash motion, making black sand come out in that motion.

He tries to fly out of the way, but it knocks him back a bit. Once his head hit the floor, he slid back some, almost hitting the wall, but barely an inch away. He slowly sits up and I see blood seep through his cheek.

I look at my nightmare scythe and back at him; I just still can't believe how strong I've become.

"She did this." He got up and looked at me with his teeth grinding in anger.

"Did what?" I knew what he was talking about, but I liked to pretend I didn't.

"Somehow her hair has healed you, making you what you now are." He still stared at me.

"That is true. It was because of what you guys did to me!" I felt anger rise in me.

"You deserved it." I walked over to him and grabbed his jacket, lifting him up to my level.

"You have no idea what it's like not to be believed." He tried to pry my hand off, but it didn't work.

"I do know what it's like not to, it's just your way was the wrong way!" I tossed him to the floor.

"That's because of the pain and the agony I felt, all my time I've been here-"Jack scoffed.

"Pshh, yeah right." I got closer to his face.

"You don't know what it feels like, until you've been there." I hit him with my scythe.

He groaned.

"I was there until I saw her. She brought light into my darkness and all the pain, agony, and sadness I felt, was gone." Jack looked at me.

"She can't… be… with you." He said while clutching his side.

I grabbed his jacket again and lift him up. "Why not?!" I asked feeling sick and tired of hearing that our love was never meant to be.

"Because she… was supposed to be… with me." I still had anger coursing through me.

"Why? Why can't you guys just accept our love?!" I threw him back down to the ground again.

"Because… the moon showed us… my fate with her…" I turned away from him.

"Lies…" I turn back to him. "ALL LIES!"

"If you… don't believe me…" he sat up. "Let… Manny show you…" I look up at the ceiling where the moon light seemed through.

"Fine…" I walked in the moon light. "Manny… show me." I have my hand and black sand comes out while the moon shined brighter on the sand forming the scene.

I never felt shocked in my life…

I sit down on the ground, still feeling shocked. "See," I turn around and see Jack next to me. "You and her were never supposed to fall in love, but she did, her parents didn't accept that when you revealed yourself to him. Your past self was just a commoner, nothing more." I looked down on the ground, not uttering a word. "So I had to take caution, I erased her mind from you, but it didn't last long. As soon as you died, she remembered you and took her life just to be with you." He said you in disgust like I was just an insect that needed to be squashed. "The moon said he that she would come back in the future and I would be able to claim her as mine this time, but it seems like the tables have turned." I got up.

"That's because…" Words wouldn't come to mind.

"Unless," Jack continued like I said nothing. "I can persuade her to be with me, that way she won't be completely gone."

"She isn't gone. If she was, she would think you're nothing." Jack smiled at me, mockingly.

"That's just it, Pitch. I. Am. Something." I shook my head.

"You are something, but something she doesn't like." I can play this game.

His eyes glowed dark blue. "Take that back."

I smiled at him. "Why would I take back something that suites you… well?" He swiftly moved his staff and shot ice at me.

It got my hand and it's started covering in ice. I laughed.

"That is smart of you, Jack, but you should know I always have something up my sleeve." I conjure up some black sand and my little nightmares popped up.

Jack looked around them as they circled him. "Can you beat them?" He wacked a few of them with his ice, but forgot the other ones behind him as they held him in place as the other one starting to punch him.

I laughed, laughed and laughed. I feel connected with my evil self. It's been awhile since it came back. Something about her has been putting it a bay, but I think this a good opportunity to show it's true nature.

"That's enough." I call to them as they looked back at me. "We don't want to kill the boy." They disappeared and went back into my hand.

I walked over to him and grab him up to my level while leaning close to his ear. "Ready to give up, boy."

I leaned back and he looked at me angry. Then he leaned in close to my face. "Never." Then hits me with an ice ball, knocking me to the ground.

I whipped the ice on my face. "Fine then." I saw him still on the ground as he tried to sit up and I got up. "Fight me." I kicked him as he rolled over.

I was about to kick him again, but he hit me with his ice and knocked over to the wall. "Now that's what I'm talking about." I saw him get up and stand his ground.

"Come and get me, Pitch." I smiled.

"Great pleasure…" I conjured up my nightmare wolfs and my nightmare creatures. "Time for some fun." I pointed to Jack. "Go forth my creatures. Show him who's boss." They all ran towards him as Jack shot them with ice, but soon got swallowed by them.

I never felt this strong before and I loved it. I walked over to my nightmare creatures.

"Face it, Jack. You can't stop our love and with you out of the picture she won't be bothered by the likes of you." Then the bright light shined through, dispersing my nightmare creatures from where they were.

I saw him standing there with his eyes glowing blue. "You leave her alone!" He walked towards me. "I swear if I ever see you with her or even near her your dead!" I walked back with ever step he took.

Maybe our love isn't meant to be. It's either I die by Jacks hands or I forever live alone.

I'm sorry Rapunzel.

I could feel the agony and the old wounds open up deep inside me. The pain was back.

"Jack, please…" With every step he took he left a trail of ice behind him. "You have to understand our love, without her I will go back there and I don't want to go back there."

I stopped as my back touched the wall and Jack leaned close to me. "I'm warning you, Pitch. Stay. Away. From. Her."

I felt sadness creep up. "Okay, okay. I will. Just don't hurt me."

"Good."I heard him walk away, but didn't open my eyes until his footsteps were gone.

I fell to the floor and felt tears fall out. "I'm sorry, Rapunzel. I'll never get to see you again, just to see another day. I hope you understand." I look up at the moonlight that was shining through. "I hope your happy!" I yelled at him. "You got your wish!" Manny won.

It was all over for me.

Sorry it's not as long as I promised, but I promise I'll make the next chapter long and in the next chapter she'll see Jack again. Until next time :)
