Chapter 1

Disclaimer: I do not own Rise of the Guardians or any of the characters

Darkness and the cold is what greeted her. She shivered slightly when a cold draft brushed her skin.

Cold? She was cold? The feeling felt so foreign.

Her eyes shot open and she breathed hard. She was surrounded by darkness. Her breathing picked up as she started to panic.

Where am I? Who am I? How did I get here?

Her thoughts were blank for a few second before everything rushed back almost overwhelming her.

Alicia Summers.

Her mouth went dry, How am I alive? She remembered, although it was blurry that she had died and then...well nothing.

Something was up. Alicia slightly shivered again when a cold daft hit her and her eyes grew wide. She didn't get cold from a small wind, so why now?

It wasn't long until her eyes adjusted to the darkness and saw she was in a room. It was small almost comfortable room if it wasn't for the darkness.

There were concrete walls surrounding her with tiles on the floor. They were an odd color but it could be seen through the darkness.

Alicia looked at herself as she sat in a bed. She wore a black dress that perfectly fitted her body. It covered her body like a robe. The dress had long sleeves that fitted loosely over her arm and ended by her wrist.

Her brows knitted together. She didn't wear this before. She pulled back the blanket and pulled herself to the edge of the bed.

Her body was somewhat stiff, but it didn't surprise her. After all I was dead.

She was still bare feet and her skin looked much darker than usual, that much she could see. She stood up shaky, her knees buckled beneath her but she managed to pull herself up.

"Barely wake and already trying to walk" Alicia heard an all too familiar voice say and rolled her eyes.

A strand of hair landed on her shoulder and her eyes shifted to it. Her blood ran cold taking it in-between her fingertips. It was pitch black, no blond or brown color. It was black.

But no emotion ran through her, she was only confused. She didn't exactly know where she was and she looked completely different.

"Would you please explain what happened to me? I thought I was dead" She asked. Alicia looked up at the person's golden eyes waiting for an answer.

"You might want to sit down again" he said and she raised an eyebrow. She sat down and crossed her arms.

"You know you died when you were in your mortal form" Pitch said plainly and Alicia growled at the plainness he spoke in but didn't interrupt.

"Since you were mortal you could be brought back as a spirit but..." He trailed off and sighed.

"I managed to bring you back" Pitch said and surprised Alicia. She was brought back by...Pitch?

"How did you manage to bring me back?" She asked and Pitch huffed. "I may be weak but I can handle a small thing like that" he said but Alicia could see the exhaustion running through him.

Since no-one actually believed in him. He was weak and to muster the power to bring her back must have taken a huge toll on him but...

Why did he bring me back? Why didn't Manny? Wasn't I worthy for him anymore?

Her thoughts raced as she sat confused. Pitch gave her the space she needed and she appreciated it. It was a lot to take in but still she felt no emotion about it, strange.

The moon suddenly shown in and she jerked back in surprise. "How on earth can he shine in when it's underground?" Alicia asked but Pitch was just as surprised as she was.

The light seemed to slowly move towards her and all she could do was raise an eyebrow.

"Watch out!" Pitch yelled. As soon as the light touched her, she was burnt.

She wanted to jerk away but couldn't. The light pulled her in and burnt her body. She wanted to yell but her throat was suddenly raw and she couldn't make a sound.

My voice! No! She shouted and then her heart ached, literally. The pain was overwhelming and she couldn't breathe...wait did she breathe before? She was confused but the pain brought her back to reality.

"STOP IT!" Pitch yelled and covered the light in shadows.

She lay on the floor and waited till the pain seized. Pitch came by her side. She coughed for a few minutes before the pain sub sized.

"Are you alright?" Pitch asked. Alicia nodded. She wanted to ask what happened but she had no voice to do so.

She grabbed her throat and tried to make a noise but nothing came out of it.

She looked up to Pitch for answers. "He took away your voice and tried to-" she nodded knowing what he meant.

But why? Why would he do this to me? Imprison her with no voice, no friends, to stay in the darkness.

"Alicia" she looked at Pitch. "You are no longer the spirit of Summer nor do you have your powers anymore... "

Alicia couldn't believe it, it was all gone? But she felt no emotion. As if she had a Frozen heart. But what is she if she isn't the spirit of summer?

"You are now Sorrow, the Spirit of Sorrow and Despair" Pitch said and although she didn't have emotions she cried.
